  774. Ordinarily, uClibc gets the timezone information exclusively from the
  775. 'TZ' environment variable. In particular, there is no support for
  776. the zoneinfo directory tree or the /etc/timezone file used by glibc.
  777. With this option enabled, uClibc will use the value stored in the

  779. 'TZ' environment variable is missing or has an invalid value. The
  780. file consists of a single line (newline required) of text describing
  781. the timezone in the format specified for the TZ environment variable.
