How about the attached patch instead? It goes through and cleans up
all the implementations as well so there is no need for the flag check.

This version of gettimeofday actually expects tz to point to a struct
timezone and accesses the tz structure fields (i.e. tz->xxxxx). It now
passes in a void pointer so I named the input parameter tzvp (vp for
void pointer) and then just set the local pointer tz; this avoided
having to change the rest of the code.
And why the casts? Too much c++ recently? :)
Just tired I'm afraid :)
