Yes, however "TZEDIT from the Windows Resource kit says DST switching
will take effect on last sunday in March. Now I wonder whether either
the emacs code gets it wrong from the OS, or Windows/NT 4.0 has no idea
what the last sunday in march is. Note that the last sunday in march is
the last day in march this year (31st). Maybe Microsoft messed it up...
