During a leap second, won't tm_sec be 60? And in fact you don't seem to handle leap seconds at all, so isn't my_mktime going to be out by one second for every leap second which has occurred since 1970?

There's a reason I'd rather just let glibc handle it :)

It's not as if tm_gmtoff is particularly esoteric -- we inherited it from BSD. Let's just use it and let both remaining HPUX users worry about it themselves if they ever want to use git on their systems.
