In DMD Version 2.043, the following code should print a timestamp both in UTC and local time. The local tzoffset is correct, but the UTC tzoffset should not be nonzero. Furthermore, what claims to be the UTC time is actually the localtime, and the so-called localtime is just wrong. The code imports std.datebase to hack around the initialization issue reported in #2965.

    #!/usr/bin/dmd -run

    import std.datebase;
    import std.stdio;
    import std.date;

    void main() {
        writefln("UTC:   %s", toString(getUTCtime()));
        writefln("Local: %s", toString(UTCtoLocalTime(getUTCtime())));
    }

$ TZ=EST5EDT date

$ TZ=EST5EDT ./timedemo.d
UTC:   Fri Apr 16 09:14:37 GMT-0400 2010
Local: Fri Apr 16 05:14:37 GMT-0400 2010

std.date has been superseded by std.datetime.
