It doesn't exist with Sun JRE?  Really?  That's why we had to patch all
our Sun JREs when the US decided to change it's DST dates?  Each and
every JRE had to be patched individually.  Actually twice, because Sun
screwed up the patch the first time around.  Not only that, it had to be
done by hand because the Sun crap wasn't delivered via the package
management system used by all the other software on the system.

Java, now you have two problems.
