Just a comment..  I was experimenting with ways to make the test pass 
(slack 8.1, glib 2.1.3, gcc 3.0.2), and by telling it to test tzname[1] with 
"AEST" it will pass (though I'm sure this violates whatever the test is for in 
the first place), but it fails on the time.daylight test (daylight = 0 when 
should = 1).

Interestingly enough, if I 
change:
test_time.py:103: environ['TZ'] = victoria
  
to
test_time.py:103: environ['TZ'] = 'Australia/Victoria'
  (as 
per the 'time' module documentation)

  it fails the same way, 
except the tztime[0,1] = EST,EST instead of AEST,*AEST (*as is the 
cause for the failed test in the first place).

Bear in mind I know jack 
diddly about how the timezone stuff works, so I'm just playing, and 
thought I'd share my results.. (=
