I don't observe the problem with version 2010m on 64-bit RHEL with my GCC 4.5.1
installation. After running the following commands:
wget ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/tzcode2010m.tar.gz
wget ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/tzdata2010m.tar.gz
tar xf tzcode2010m.tar.gz
tar xf tzdata2010m.tar.gz
make TOPDIR=`pwd`/topdir ALL install
TZ=`pwd`/topdir/etc/zoneinfo/America/Los_Angeles valgrind ./date
the output of the valgrind session is:
