Description:
------------
php_localtime_r(almost localtime_r(3)) does not call tzset(3) in some libc (eg. Cygwin, NetBSD).
Thus we need call tzset(3) before calling php_localtime_r.
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=4732

If we set TZ env. via putenv PHP function, tzset(3) is  called internally. But lack of calling tzset(3) before PHP  script execution, and some functions. Therefore I get incorect result from php_localtime_r.

php_localtime_r is used in these files.
ext/calendar/cal_unix.c
ext/calendar/easter.c
ext/dbase/dbf_misc.c
ext/standard/datetime.c
ext/standard/info.c
main/main.c


Reproduce code:
---------------
% cat tztest.php
<?php
/* date() is just example, shows incorrectly */
echo date("r (T)"),"\n";
/* works fine.. because putenv("TZ=JST-9") calls tzset */
putenv("TZ=JST-9");
echo date("r (T)"),"\n";
?>
% TZ="JST-9" php -q tztest.php


Expected result:
----------------
Sat,  7 Feb 2004 20:18:15 +0900 (JST)
Sat,  7 Feb 2004 20:18:15 +0900 (JST)

Actual result:
--------------
Sat,  7 Feb 2004 11:18:15 +0000 ()
Sat,  7 Feb 2004 20:18:15 +0900 (JST)
