[issue39502] test_zipfile fails on AIX due to time.localtime

Not sure I understand what bug I am supposed to report. I apologize if 
my message https://bugs.python.org/issue39502#msg361116.

I assume your comment re: time.localtime(91301504) comes from this bit 
of the test message (mtime_ns=91301504000000000).

Assuming our TZ used are different I am verifying AIX works correctly 
for the constant 91301504

Again, my apologies for the confusion: the message
"skipped 'Linux VFS/XFS kernel bug detected: mtime_ns=91301504000000000" only occurs when the test is run on a NFS
mount hosted by a SAN based on a Linux kernel.

When I specify --tempdir=/tmp (i.e., using jfs2 as filesystem) the test passes normally.
