For the connoisseurs of olde time stamps:
The "LMT location" for backzone/Europe/Guernsey is given
as "49.27N -2.33E" -- seemingly in degrees and decimal
fractions of degrees. But the point ( +49.27°, -2.33° ) =
( +49°16′12″, -002°19′48″ ) is in open waters about
15 km south of Guernsey and east of Sark in the Channel.
The point ( +49°27′, -002°33′ ), however, is in St Peter Port
on the island, so that arc minutes and not hundredths of
degrees must be meant. This also agrees with zone.tab.
Hence:
-# LMT Location - 49.27N -2.33E - St.Peter Port
+# LMT Location - 49°27′N -2°33′E - St.Peter Port
-Zone Europe/Guernsey -0:09:19 - LMT 1913 Jun 18
+Zone Europe/Guernsey -0:10:12 - LMT 1913 Jun 18
