Subject: Re: STDCXX examples fails and reasons [MSVC]
I have updated the windows build infrastructure to set TZ
environment variable before run examples. The proposed
similar changes
in unix infrastructure below, but I'm not sure that is correct:
Why not? :)
Because in windows infrastructure the TZ environment variable is set
for all examples only, but my patch in unix infrastructure sets TZ
variable for tests also.
Hmm. I don't suppose it should matter (our tests shouldn't be relying
on the variable being set to any specific value), but I see what you
mean. Is there a way to set the variable just for examples?

If you're not sure it's portable check out the TZ
section in POSIX:

Any of MST7, MST07, MST+7, and MST+07 should work. If it
works on the platforms you have access to (Linux and HP-UX) I
say check it in and keep an eye out on failures for a few
days to make sure it works everywhere else.
