Or, it could be in /bin/date itself, part of coreutils. I see this in the latest versionâs NEWS file:
date could crash or go into an infinite loop when parsing a malformed TZ="".
[bug introduced with the --date='TZ="" ..' parsing feature in coreutils-5.3.0]
So, whatâs the TZ setting on the 1.7.34 box?
