Bug #61685 [Csd]: putenv('TZ=UTC') doesn't update timezone for localtime()

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=61685&edit=1 ID: 61685 Updated by: cmb@php.net Reported by: mattficken@php.net Summary: putenv('TZ=UTC') doesn't update timezone for localtime() Status: Closed Type: Bug Package: Calendar related Operating System: Windows PHP Version: 5.4.0 Assigned To: ab Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: For the record, this is a special case of bug #79051. The original test failure almost certainly occurred on a ZTS build, where putenv('TZ=UTC') does not work for the *current* process, because the internally called tzset() does not see the variable set via SetEnvironmentVariable().
