As a by-product of creating the Val.Timestamp (et al) types, I encountered numerous bugs and uncertainties in mktime() and System.TM() with regard to timezone handling/abuse.
AFAICS, all these bugs have now been dealt with and fixed in 8.1. Any objections if I port these fixes from 8.1 to 8.0?
Sounds good to me. No objection.
