Description espie 2000-06-12 00:03:57 UTC 
Older unix systems included a timezone function, which has nothing
in common with linux timezone variable.

The test to check whether timezone exists in configure.in is bogus.
Moreover, the systematic addition of timezone in 
build/ParseChangelog.c
is bogus as well.

Can you send a patch please? It's hard to guess what OpenBSD needs otherwise.
Comment 2 Jeff Johnson 2000-07-31 15:44:45 UTC 
If you append a patch to this report, I will try to include.
Comment 3 Jeff Johnson 2001-07-29 15:34:56 UTC 
Please reopen with a patch.
