This is because src/w32.c uses the abbreviation "ZZZ" when a POSIX TZ
abbreviation is not supported by MS-Windows.
One possible fix would be for src/w32.c to call tzset with a ZZZ...Z
abbreviation, and then to modify tzname[0] afterwards to have a copy of
the POSIX-specified abbreviation. src/w32.c could use enough Zs so that
the tzname[0] created by the MS-Windows library would be long enough and
could be updated in place rather than worrying about our reallocating it.
If that's too much trouble, another workaround would be to change the
test case so that it is not run on MS-Windows.
