As a preamble to the impending next attempt at 64-bit changes,
below find a script (given the name "zgress" here at elsie)
to check on differences between two time zone implementations.
--ado
#!/bin/sh
# Accept the names of two time zone package source directories (A and B).
# Do a "make install" from each directory to temporary directories.
# Apply the created "zdump" programs to all the created binary data files:
# the A zdump to the A data (yielding AA results)
# the A zdump to the B data (yielding AB results)
# the B zdump to the A data (yielding BA results)
# the B zdump to the B data (yielding BB results)
# Report on differences.
