[gnu.emacs] Daylight savings time problem

pschmidt@bbn.com (Peter H. Schmidt) (04/04/89)

I applied Lenny's patch for fixing the date when DST goes into effect
(apparently successfully) to /lib/shlib, ctime.o, date, and gnu-emacs
18.52.1), and rebooted.  However, as others have observed, the time did not
advance Sunday morning. So I logged in as install and set the timezone to EST5
from the ua, answering yes to the question about daylight savings time.

This got me good behavior out of date, mail and ls.  Unfortunately, emacs
still reports the time an hour slow.  Any suggestions, anyone?

Thanks,

Peter
