This is an undocumented 'feature' of std.date.

To set the local time zone you must set the public variable in std.date.

For example, to set the time zone to -4 hours from UTC...

   std.date.LocalTZA = -4 * msPerHour;

To get the local time zone as defined in your system's parameters ...

   d_time realLTZ = std.date.getLocalTZA();
