Hello Des,

I have a good candidate to test failure with /etc/localtime absence:
devel/R-cran-data.table
Current version 1.17.0 has:

# Tests needs /etc/locatime symlink defined to succeed
(# and C.UTF-8 env set:
MAKE_ENV=       LC_ALL=C.UTF-8)

I still don't know the best way to demonstrate this to upstream.

Thanks,
