in reply to TimeZoning oddities

I'm doing most of my work on XP right now, so I can't comment on Debian. I've had my own timezone mysteries (for some reason half the apps I've written -- those not in Perl-- are convinced I'm using UTC).

I'm wondering if the time you're getting (from the implied call to time) is being assumed to be in the local time, with the time zone merely being tacked on. What happens to the return from gmtime() with a change in time zone?
