The change was to use localtime() rather than mktime() in the code. There is no workaround available for 7.2.X, and I don't see that anyone backpatched it to 7.2 CVS. However, we are considering a 7.2.3 and a backpatch of that fix may be worthwhile. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
