  35      There are four possible kinds of such values:
  36        - Traditional US time zone names, e.g. "PST8PDT".  Syntax: see
  37          <https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/90s5c885.aspx>
  38        - Time zone names based on geography, that contain one or more
  39          slashes, e.g. "Europe/Moscow".
  40        - Time zone names based on geography, without slashes, e.g.
  41          "Singapore".
  42        - Time zone names that contain explicit DST rules.  Syntax: see
  43          <http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/V1_chap08.html#tag_08_03>
  44      The Microsoft CRT understands only the first kind.  It produces incorrect
  45      results if the value of TZ is of the other kinds.
  46      But in a Cygwin environment, /etc/profile.d/tzset.sh sets TZ to a value
  47      of the second kind for most geographies, or of the first kind in a few
  48      other geographies.  If it is of the second kind, neutralize it.  For the
  49      Microsoft CRT, an absent or empty TZ means the time zone that the user
  50      has set in the Windows Control Panel.
  51      If the value of TZ is of the third or fourth kind -- Cygwin programs
  52      understand these syntaxes as well --, it does not matter whether we
  53      neutralize it or not, since these values occur only when a Cygwin user
  54      has set TZ explicitly; this case is 1. rare and 2. under the user's
  55      responsibility.  */
