Maybe I am dense, but where does POSIX actually oblige implementations
to only accept the POSIX forms for TZ? I see no requirement for
implementations to handle this in any specific way, but maybe I overlooked
it?
(The lack of requirements might not invalidate reasons to change
anything, of course).
