Once again, my apologies for assuming that my esteemed colleagues had done the responsible thing and MFC'ed their own work. I have resolved this issue by going back and doing 3 1/2 years of MFCs for tzsetup(8), which now makes it identical to the code in stable/8. If you update your src tree and then update tzsetup you should no longer experience this problem. Doug -- [^L] Breadth of IT experience, and depth of knowledge in the DNS.
