I don't understand precisely what need to be done, but I'll give it a shot if you get me pointed in the right direction. <downloads and looks at code> I see that tzcode2002c.tar.gz includes a mktime() function. Is the idea to pull this out (with just whatever support it needs), incorporate it into PostgreSQL source (perhaps in a new src/backend/utils/tz directory) and use this in place of the system provided mktime()?
