Adds TZif Version 1 Support (4.21 KB, patch)

Description Allison Karlitskaya (desrt) 2010-10-05 06:26:19 UTC 
There are some still-supported systems in the wild that ship version 1 zoneinfo files.  GTimeZone will ignore anything that's not version 2.

We should fix that (*sigh*).

Well, that's easy.

A bit harder is getting it to work in MSWin as well. We can only go halfway, because they put the timezone info in the registry somewhere and don't have API to retrieve arbitrary timezones, just the current local one.
