Message326339
Thanks for the report Raghunath. Regarding timezone detection there is a limitation with %Z supporting only UTC, GMT and `time.tzname` which is not documented and it's an open issue tracked at issue22377 . Regarding a directive to determine Era I think it falls under a feature request and compile error is used for errors during compiling python interpreter itself. So I am changing this from compile error to enhancement.
# Support for GMT, UTC and error on PDT
$ ./python.exe

Hope this helps!
