I've made the change to tzset.c.  If TZ is not set some more thorough tests are
performed.  The additional change to tzfile.c I added prevents most of the work
in case the file has not changed.

As for any code which doesn't call tzset all the time: this definitly won't
change.  It's far too expensive.  And for what?  The 0.000001% of the people who
take the laptops on a world tour and expect, e.g., syslog messages with dates
according to the native timezone.  This is not justification enough.  Just
restart your machine.

Created an attachment (id=74)
 --> (http://sources.redhat.com/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=74&action=view)
Patch for tzset.c (2.3.2 and current CVS)

This patch for tzset_internal() handles the issue if TZ is unset.

See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=48184&msg=9 for a patch
handling the TZ=/path/timezonefile case also.

To resolve this issue, is would be necessary to call tzset() internally in each
invocation of localtime(). This may be considered as too expensive.

But even if an application calls tzset() itself, glibc does not reload the
timezone info if TZ is unset.

To reproduce this bug, add tzset() to program in comment 0:

 while (1) {
+   tzset();
    time(&epochnow);
    timenow=localtime(&epochnow);

The output will be the same.
