Description:
------------
inDaylightTime() alters the $TZ environment variable temporarily to do its calculation, and attempts to restore $TZ back to its original state, but does it wrong when $TZ was unset. Instead of re-deleting it, it would set it to an empty string, which caused nasty side effects.
The fix is to re-unset it by doing putenv("TZ"), if it was originally unset.
