> > This patch implements a timezone backend which is based on ICU, rather
> > than operating system calls. It can be turned on by passing the
> > --icu-timezone-data flag. The goal here is to take advantage of ICU's
> > data, which is more complete than the data that some system calls expose.
> > For example, without any special code, this patch fixes the time zone
> > of Lord Howe Island to have a correct 30 minute DST offset, rather than
> > 60 minutes as the OS backends assume it to have.
> >
> > Unfortunately, the parenthized timezone name in Date.prototype.toString()
> > differs across platforms. This patch chooses the long timezone name,
> > which matches Windows behavior and might be the most intelligible, but
> > the web compatibility impact is unclear.
