Comment (by derekmartin):
Ugh, yeah. If mktime() returns -1, mutt_mktime() should do the same right
after that call. It's an unfortunate interface--a time_t of -1 is
perfectly valid.
These standard time functions are sorely in need of an update...
Uploading an updated patch, which also fixes the comments I added to
mutt_local_tz()... In the previous version the comments were a mishmash
of comments from two different implementations of a similar function.
