We have several different versions of UNIX running here but all have a
common flaw: there is no way we know to teach them that Congress changed the
dates of the switch from standard time to daylight savings time and back.

Our local guru's do not know where to patch - we do not have sources
to all UNIX variants - System III/V (Altos 68000, Pyramid OSx, Nixdorf TOS).

Who could tell us what can be done to inject the correct dates into the
body of the kernel (or whereever)?

Thanks for your help.
