Just ran the tests for 2.7.4 and got 12 failures. Looks like Timezones
might be an issue. We set and export the TZ variable to
"AEST-10AEDT-11,M10.5.0,M3.5.0" to make our timezone work properly
(Australia/Melbourne, there is a long standing problem with Zope's
DataTime that makes it fail to recognise many timezones without setting
the TZ variable to force it). The errors we are getting are;

======================================================================
FAIL: Constructor from date/time string

Traceback (most recent call last):

We are also getting a few errors like;
