37# In the draft 5 of POSIX 1003.1-200x, the angle bracket notation allows for
38# TZ='<GMT-4>+4'; if you want time zone abbreviations conforming to
39# ISO 8601 you can use TZ='<-0400>+4'. Thus the commonly-expected
40# offset is kept within the angle bracket (and is used for display)
41# while the POSIX sign is kept outside the angle bracket (and is used
42# for calculation).
