Re: [tz] proposed changes for Win32 and a improved mktime() algorithm

Yes, and it's time to take the next step in deprecating yearistype, by issuing warnings when people try to use it, rather than merely documenting that it's deprecated. A proposed patch is attached.

Also, due to this 2016-09-06 commit:

https://github.com/eggert/tz/commit/6d70edaaf149e35ebb6d9107b216519debcc7f11

zic now chdirs to its destination directory, which means 'zic -y ./yearistype' no longer works unless yearistype is in the destination directory. I expect that nobody has reported the issue because nobody uses yearistype any more.

Thanks. Kees
