Oh, I thought you'd said previously there could be concurrent such
threads.  (I'd meant to try to work up a section for the manual on
such things.)

I realized since posting, that time() on a DOS system might be
affected by the TZ changes made by the other stime.c functions.

I guess all that stuff ought to change to use a little mutex
controlling access to TZ.  getenv/putenv would have to cooperate with
that too so a mere temporary change is not seen or overridden.
