    Hey Gurus,

    Was playing the Perl/Tk and happened to try the localtime function. It is
    returning GMT even though I have the ENV variable TZ set to US/Central,
    which applies to my locale. Anyone else have this problem on WINXP?

    I'm running:

    "This is perl, v5.8.4 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread
    (with 3 registered patches, see perl -V for more detail)
