I used to work in a shop Back Then (TM) (roughly Windows 3.1). We did
C programs for a living and had a mix of Windows boxes and Linux boxes.

Windows boxes were "naive" and had local time. We had a time zone
with summer and winter time.

On time transitions, all hell broke loose with Makefiles, which look
at file time stamps :-)

We ended up setting the Windows boxes to Monrovia/Liberia: no time
jumps *and* (more or less) GMT. No more hassles...


That is a great idea -- thank you!  :-)
