Gnulib module: mktime
Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
- On native Windows platforms (mingw, MSVC), this function works incorrectly
when the environment variable
TZ has been set by Cygwin.
mktime may go into an endless loop on some platforms.
mktime may occasionally return wrong results on some platforms.
Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:
- On some platforms, this function yields incorrect values for
timestamps before the year 1:
MacOS X 10.5, Solaris 11.3.
- Native Windows platforms (mingw, MSVC) support only a subset of time
zones supported by GNU or specified by POSIX. See
tzset.
