I should have said "struct timezone' instead of 'struct tz' (ain't no
such animal). But the first argument is a struct timeval *, which has
no reference to a timezone.
Anyway - pointless to argue - I'll make the changes. NULL should work:
the man page says this:
If either tv or tz is null, the corresponding structure is not set
