Note that this value for the vxWorks TIMEZONE variable is wrong - the 
last two digits in each triplet tell vxWorks the _hour_ of the change, 
not the year, thus they should almost always be 02 since most states 
change to/from summer time at 2am.

The format is described in the configure/CONFIG_SITE_ENV file of most 
recent R3.14 releases.
