I'm having a very wierd problem with Lightspeed C's time() and ctime()
functions.  They both print out the correct time, except that they're both
exactly 5 hours fast!!

	#include  <unix.h>
	#include  <stdio.h> /*I also included just about
			    	 every manager there is.*/
	main()
	{
	unsigned long a;
	unsigned long clock;

		time(&a);
		printf("%s", ctime(&a));
		printf("%s", ctime(NULL));
	}

	This program printed out "Mon Sept 21 05:55:01  1987"
				 "Mon Sept 21 05:59:01  1987",
	but my JClock said "0:59:01", so I know that the problem
	isn't that my system clock is set wrong.  

	This wierd behavior occurs with v2.01 and v2.11 of LSC,
	on a Mac SE HD20 running 4.1/5.5.

	Any clues are greatly appreciated!

	-Ted
