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

  782. file consists of a single line (newline required) of text describing
  783. the timezone in the format specified for the TZ environment variable.
