@Jouni - do you have a link to the bug or discussion which made this change?

It preposterous to break applications so they ignore TZ as a solution for a problematic build system. A build system could simply run everything with TZ=UTC, which would make apps display in UTC regardless of where the build executes.

** What would people think if the "date" command were changed to ignore the locale?
