New submission from Eric Pruitt <eric.pru...@gmail.com>:

If the current time zone changes on Windows, time.localtime will continue to 
return results that reflect the time zone the system used when the module was 
imported. My current work around is to use GetLocalTime from kernel32 with 
ctypes. Windows does not have a tzset() equivalent as it does in Linux, but it 
seems like modifying time.localtime to use GetLocalTime on Windows systems 
could make up for this shortcoming.
