Hi Derick,
From Yesterday(06/10/2005) onwards NetWare php-5.1 autotests were
failing because of a segfault from tests/lang/023.phpt which makes one
mktime call.
When delved for the cause it seems that In NetWare LibC SDK's time.h
tzname is expanded to ___tzname() this cause the C preprocessor to
change the tzname to vague ___tzname function call in
php_date_parse_tzfile().
Changing the variable name tzname to formal_tzname or anything more
pleasing in php_date_parse_tzfile should fix it.

Can you check in this?

With regards
Kamesh Jayachandran
