Nope.

All.

I am wondering if I shouldn't just redo everything in the system that
has to do with time zones and time keeping (deleting files and re-creating
them if need be), reboot, and see what happens. I've never seen a good
explanation of all of the sysctl variables, environment variables, files,
etc. that control it, especially since (as I understand it) the responsibility
has been shifted from the kernel to libraries. Is there a summary out there?
