From the ChangeLog:

> Mon Aug 23 21:37:07 1999  Christopher Faylor <cgf AT cygnus DOT com>
>   * times.cc (timezone): Use __small_sprintf.

Did you test the change?
The format string uses the '+'-modifier and __small_sprintf doesn't know
this modifier. Therefor a '?' is inserted for the hour.

> 1999-08-23  DJ Delorie  <dj AT envy DOT delorie DOT com>
>  (timezone): return TZ if set. 

timezone() should return the timezone name not TZ.

e.g. At standard time it returns 'CST' and at daylight time 'CDT'.

If timezone() can not resolve the correct timezone name it should
return 'GMT+/-hh:mm'.
