I append one, you can switch the "#if 0" to "#if 1" and test which one
works better on your system (both _should_ work IMHO).
According to the GNU libc info file, the daylight variable can take any
non-zero value if we are in daylight savings time. The same info proposes
that GNU programs should use tm_gmtoff instead of timezone and daylight.
(And the conv struct was assigned but never used.)
