Sorry, I didn't understand that.

%z is non-ANSI (C89) and (AFAIK) non-Posix, so it depends on the library 
implementation.  Glibc's docs says it follows the RFC 822/ISO 8601:1988 
style, so +0200 is correct.  Our %z is undocumented, so we could produce 
just about anything ;-).

C99 says %z should be as in glibc, so we will need to change that when 
C99 is supported.
