	On Solaris 2.6, I noticed that the output from zdump seemed a bit odd.
	The first lines are:

	US/Eastern  Sat Dec 14 20:45:52 1901 GMT = Sat Dec 14 16:45:52 1901 EWT
isdst=0
	US/Eastern  Sun Mar 31 06:59:59 1918 GMT = Sun Mar 31 02:59:59 1918 EWT
isdst=0
	...

Things seem okay here aboard the mother ship:
