I don't see a difference between 1 and 2. In any case, I recommend
using times without tests in Chapert 5 and with tests in Chapter 6.
Note that the SBU site has not been updated in several years and the set
of packages on the site and in the book do not match up exactly any more.
The TZ is not needed in any case. My BLFS scripts look something like
the following, but I use jhalfs for LFS times.
