Campbell,

The fact that you had to change timezone to _timezone should have been
your first clue.  There is something wrong with the name mangling (perhaps
a wrong calling convention declared?) for that particular project.  You
might want to look into gcc's "-fleading-underscore" option ("info gcc").
