Python's time.altzone is equal to time.timezone, it should be
time.timezone-3600 (for CEST)
$ python -c 'import time; time.tzset(); print time.ctime(), \
time.daylight, time.timezone, time.altzone, time.tzname'
Sun May 14 13:46:55 2006 1 -3600 -3600 (' ', ' ')
Possible side effect of the blank and equal tzname strings (caused by
the timezone names returned by german XP) ?
Cygwin's runtime timezone offset looks good:
$ date '+%c %z "%Z"'
Sun May 14 13:46:55 2006 +0200 " "
This possible python runtime bug causes bad time conversions in
rdiff-backup-1.1.5 ([Maybe ITP] ;-)
