POSIX.1 states that for the time-related fields, "Times are given in
seconds since the Epoch."  Epoch is defined as "00:00:00 Jan 1 1970
Coordinated Universal Time."

I interpret CUT to be the same as GMT+0, so TZ would (or should) have
no affect, except that DOS stores times as local time instead of CUT
time.
