>Description:
the java runtime in jdk-1.4.2p7 is not able to extract timezone
information from the operating system, if /etc/localtime is a
symlink to a zone file in /usr/share/zoneinfo, for example
Europe/Berlin. Result is, that time functions give times in
zone GMT.
>How-To-Repeat:
output date/time
