Also, one of the places GCC warns about optimizing away an overflow
check (with -fno-wrapv) is inside the localtime.c file from the tz
library. I fixed it in my patch but in fact I checked and it's already
fixed upstream so I'm wondering whether you expect to merge in an
updated tz library? Is there anything surprising about the process or
do you just copy in the files? Would you be happy for someone else to
do it?
