+ * by calling tzset() with TZ and then without TZ to update timezone.
+ * The trick should work since FreeBSD 2.1.0.
+ *
+ * Linux does not test /etc/localtime change in localtime(),
+ * but may stat("/etc/localtime") several times in every strftime(),
+ * therefore we use it to update timezone.
+ *
+ * Solaris does not test /etc/TIMEZONE change too and no workaround available.
