Excellent!

I'm just a bit confused about %Z, because it seems to me that the
documentation contradicts the test.
Here's the doc change:
> +Note that @samp{%Z} always ignores the @code{tm:zone} in @var{tm};

Here's the test:
> + (pass-if "strftime %Z doesn't return garbage"
> + (let ((t (localtime (current-time))))
> + (set-tm:zone t "ZOW")
> + (set-tm:isdst t 0)

The doc seems to be saying that (strftime "%Z" tm) will ignore TM's
zone, but the test makes it look like (strftime "%Z" tm) uses TM's
zone. Am I misunderstanding?
