James Henstridge:
> The Olson time zone database (used by most UNIX systems and Mac OS X)
has a number of time zones with historic offsets that use second
resolution (from before those locations switched to a rounded offset
from GMT).

Ok for increasing the resolution to seconds. But PR 2896 increases the resolution to microseconds. What is the rationale for supporting microseconds?

I would prefer to only accept microseconds=0.
