Subject:	Re: What is all this "timezone" stuff for?

The timezone directory exists to describe all the possible time zone
mechanisms throughout the world.  Most dos compilers assume you're in
the USA (some assume a particular time zone!).  DJGPP does not.  By
default, it uses USA, but if you aren't in the USA you can use these
extra files to configure the time calculations for your location.

If you don't need them, you can delete the whole directory.
