I dunno whether this mean that FC2 will change properly, but
this is what my machine has on it. It is not completely in
"sync" with Fedora Legacy, as FCL and I have some differences
of opinion of what constitutes unacceptable QA policy.

I really don't care. I don't observe DST anyway, and would prefer
that the machine not change the time it displays. I don't change
my clocks.

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
