+/* Converts struct tm to time_t, assuming the data in tm is UTC rather
+   than local timezone.
+
+   mktime is similar but assumes struct tm, also known as the
+   "broken-down" form of time, is in local time zone.  mktime_from_utc
+   uses mktime to make the conversion understanding that an offset
+   will be introduced by the local time assumption.
+
+   mktime_from_utc then measures the introduced offset by applying
+   gmtime to the initial result and applying mktime to the resulting
+   "broken-down" form.  The difference between the two mktime results
+   is the measured offset which is then subtracted from the initial
+   mktime result to yield a calendar time which is the value returned.
+
+   tm_isdst in struct tm is set to 0 to force mktime to introduce a
+   consistent offset (the non DST offset) since tm and tm+o might be
+   on opposite sides of a DST change.
+
+   Some implementations of mktime return -1 for the nonexistent
+   localtime hour at the beginning of DST.  In this event, use
+   mktime(tm - 1hr) + 3600.
+
+   Schematically
+   mktime(tm)   --> t+o
+   gmtime(t+o)  --> tm+o
+   mktime(tm+o) --> t+2o
+   t+o - (t+2o - t+o) = t
+
+   Note that glibc contains a function of the same purpose named
+   `timegm' (reverse of gmtime).  But obviously, it is not universally
+   available, and unfortunately it is not straightforwardly
+   extractable for use here.  Perhaps configure should detect timegm
+   and use it where available.
