More accurately, the support for the timezone specs via the TZ
environment variable is very limited.  The native Windows way of
specifying timezones is as rich as that on Posix systems, but it uses
programmatic APIs, not environment variables or databases stored on
files.

Thanks, all the tests now pass.

However, the utimens.c file you've brought from Gnulib has 2 problems:

  . it defines WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN unconditionally, which conflicts
    with our own definition in nt/inc/ms-w32.h, which is processed
    earlier;

  . it includes msvc-nothrow.h, which is absent in the repository, it
    should have been imported from Gnulib together with utimens.c

I fixed the first of these temporarily, in a way that at least GCC
lets utimens.c compile, but I think in general utimens.c should do

  #ifndef WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN
  # define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN
  #endif

to avoid possible clashes with definitions elsewhere in the sources.
