  This variable is missing on some platforms:
  Mac OS X 10.3, FreeBSD 6.0, OpenBSD 3.8, IRIX 6.5, OSF/1 5.1.
  @item
  The address of this variable is not a compile-time constant on some platforms:
  Cygwin, mingw.
  @item
  Native Windows platforms (mingw, MSVC) support only a subset of time

  @end itemize
  
  A more portable way of getting the UTC offset is to use
  @code{strftime} with the @code{%z} format.  @xref{strftime}.
