Comment (by code@…):
{{{
Actually, why does this function even exist? Why does mutt not simply
call mktime() directly, and rely on the system library to implement it
correctly, instead of trying to re-implement the function itself? Are
we to believe there exist POSIX-like platforms that still don't have
mktime? That seems extraordinarily unlikely.... The standard which
contains it is very old.
