I have a little problem with GCC, and I hope that someone can give me a
hint about it:

My local time is Central European Time, which is one hour ahead of British
time, and during daylight savings two hours ahead of GMT. So I set my TZ
variable to this:

  TZ=CET-1CST

Now I should be able to get both local and GM time from GCC. The following
little program, however, doesn't work:

 /----------------------
#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>

main ()
{
   time_t now;
   int    hour_l,hour_g;

   tzset ();

   time (&now);

   hour_l = localtime(&now)->tm_hour;
   puts (asctime (localtime (&now)));

   hour_g = gmtime(&now)->tm_hour;
   puts (asctime (gmtime (&now)));

   printf ("local: %i, gmt: %i\n",hour_l,hour_g);
   }
 \----------------------

The output from this is (when run at 00:04:35 local time):

 /----------------------
Wed Sep 23 22:04:35 1992

Wed Sep 23 22:04:35 1992

local: 22, gmt: 22
 \----------------------

So GCC treats the TZ variable correctly in that it evaluates the correct
GMT, and this also works for other zones and dates as well. So what am I
doing wrong that prevents localtime from giving me "00:04" instead of the
above?
