Summary: timemodule doesn't build on solaris 8

Initial Comment:
altzone is only defined if _XOPEN_SOURCE is *not*
defined (for STDC) in <time.h>.  The autoconf test for
altzone, doesn't use _XOPEN_SOURCE, so HAVE_ALTZONE is
defined.  But timemodule can't build because
_XOPEN_SOURCE is always defined in pyconfig.h before
including /usr/include/time.h.

I'm not sure how this should be fixed.  Martin, I think
you were involved with the _XOPEN_SOURCE thread.  Does
this work for you on Solaris8?  Are there OS patches
which are necessary (ie, bug in the header files)?

It works fine for me. Why do you say that the test for
altzone doesn't use _XOPEN_SOURCE? It certainly does, by
means of

AC_DEFINE(_XOPEN_SOURCE, 500)
