New Daylight Savings Time and possible problems?

Hi,

Due to the Energy Policy Act of 2005,  the start and end dates for 
Daylight Saving Time (DST) are changing as of April 2007. Microsoft 
states the following

"...Developers who use Visual C++ may find their applications 
affected if they use the CRT time functions, or the TZ environment 
variable"....

"...direct access to the Win32 API, will not have to update their 
applications as long as the available updates to the operating system 
are applied. However, solutions that rely on private time zone data, 
or that retrieve system time zone information by accessing the 
registry directly, may need to be updated..."

I don't know the internals of the wincvs client, I was not sure if it 
used the Windows API to get the TimeZone information or it had 
private functions to compute the timezone. So I was wondering if this 
change in DST might cause a problem with the WinCVS client, and the 
previous DST bug might return back.

If you know about the internal workings of the client regarding the 
TimeZone retrieval, could you please inform me?

Thank you
