Okay, so the newlib implementation actually fails, when the name is too long. The POSIX standard leaves it up to the implementation how to handle names[1]: > The interpretation of these fields is unspecified if either field is less than three bytes (except for the case when dst is missing), more than {TZNAME_MAX} bytes, or if they contain characters other than those specified. I'm not sure where to go with this. In both cases, the current implementation needs a fix. Looping in Brian Inglis, the writer of the current implementation and Jeff Johnston, a maintainer. As I see it, there are two solutions: 1. Treat long names as an error case. The failed condition[2] needs to apply UTC as current time, like Dimitar Dimitrov previously suggested. The test needs to be changed to check that it actually fails. 2. Mimic glibc's behavior and ignore the remaining characters from the name. In that case, the condition[2] and following code needs to be updated as well. I am happy to provide a patch, when we agreed on one solution. > I assume you no longer need assembly output from compiler? No, thanks. We already found the issue. It would only be helpful, if different configurations generate different code (through macros, optimization, etc.).
