This 1989 update of the time zone package features POSIXization (including
interpretation of POSIX-style TZ environment variables, provided by Guy
Harris), ANSIfication (including a version of "mktime"), corrections to some
time zone data (including corrections to the rules for Great Britain and
New Zealand), reference data from the United States Naval Observatory for
folks who want to do additional time zones, and the 1989 data for Saudi Arabia.

(Since this code will be treated as "part of the implementation" in some places
and as "part of the application" in others, there's no good way to name
functions, such as timegm, that are extensions to the proposed ANSI standard;
functions, such as timegm, that are not part of the proposed ANSI C standard;
such functions have kept their old, underscore-free names in this update.)
