+[23] The `strptime' function needs to be completed. This includes among
+ other things that it must get teached about timezones. The solution
+ envisioned is to extract the timezones from the ADO timezone
+ specifications. Special care must be given names which are used
+ multiple times. Here the precedence should (probably) be according
+ to the geograhical distance. E.g., the timezone EST should be
+ treated as the `Eastern Australia Time' instead of the US `Eastern
+ Standard Time' if the current TZ variable is set to, say,
+ Australia/Canberra or if the current locale is en_AU.
