Hello,

if I understand correctly how date and time is handled under eCos,
than it is entirely up to the application to specify STD and DST zone
offsets and switch to/from DST with cyg_libc_time_setdst.

Is this correct?    

If it is, than what is wrong with simple time adjustment made
according to tm_isdst flag in mktime - the code is commented out.  

The following test will fail with the current implementation
of mktime if zone offsets are set.

time0 = time(NULL);
lt = localtime(&time0);
time1 = mktime(lt);

if (time0 != time1) FAIL();
