After I started a debugger I found the problem in the timezone handling
of
datetime (my Linux box lost its timezone information, that's how the
problem occurred).
Only 7 bytes are reserved for the timezone, without checking for
boundaries.
Attached is a patch that fixes this problem and emits a NOTICE if a

in
scripts/.

it's int. For now I'm just going to make it int so that I can compile.
If the other way is actually necessary on some Unix somewhere, I guess
we will need a configure test...
