[febuiles (Federico Builes)]

The documentation for compat_common_month_table in time.c:1326 contains a link to http://use.perl.org/articles/08/02/07/197204.shtml, which 404s. I tried to search for the original article (http://use.perl.org/use.perl.org/search1e49-2.html?threshold=0&op=stories&sort=1&start=1980) but I couldn't find anything related to the month table.

The comments also mention an issue with Debian and timezones (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=522949) but I cannot reproduce on Wheezy.
