I completely agree with Tom and Marc -- if we're going to do this at
all, we should use the timezone library for all platforms. Since that
is the only plausible way we could release 7.5 in my view, the sooner
we get testing of the code on all platforms, the better.

I have no problem if you would like to delay doing this for a matter of
days or hours so that you've got it working on one platform before
enabling it for others, but I would like to see it enabled for all
platforms soon.
