This mail apparantly didn't make it through because it was too large.
Resending it without the largest file, tzlib.tgz. I've put this file (+
the patches) on http://www.hagander.net/pgsql/.

> Attached is a slightly modified version of Arthur David
> Olson's timezone library for inclusion in postgresql, pending
> review of course. This is required to give win32 working
> timezone functions on dates before 1970. It has also been
> indicated that it might be interesting to have such a library
> on other platforms as well. Note that with this enabled, the
> timezone data files are installed in <pgdir>/share/timezone.

> Attached are the following files:
> * tzlib.tgz - the timezone implementation, including the
> datafiles required to build the timezone data files.
> * timezone.patch - the modifications made to existing files
> to make it work. This includes setting the FRONTEND flat for ecpg.
> * tzcode.diff - lists the modifications that I have made to
> the files from the original timezone files, for reference.
