Sorry about that.  Chris and I had a short mail exchange about
that patch.  What I'd like to see is just a bit more of an
explanation why the patch is needed.  Especially two points,
where in the common standards did you find that a timezone
string must be three chars to be valid and could you give
an example what else is stored at that point in non-english
OSes?

Thanks,
Corinna
