Interesting. When I installed 8.1 I naturally set my local area (west
coast US) for the time zone. Is that what you refer to? I also
scrolled further up the test list and found this, which is apparently
where the test is failing:
tsformat {
ccaltst {
TestCalendar {
!! FAIL: ucal_getDefaultTimeZone() => U_BUFFER_OVERFLOW_ERROR
} ---[1 ERRORS in /tsformat/ccaltst/TestCalendar] (13ms)
Cheers...
