followed by an entry with an ls_trans value of 1341100825 and an ls_corr value of 26.
Bottom line: Bradley White's code should be okay.

Subject: [tz] may be a small mistake in the localtime.c code
Hello,
The next piece of code looks like a mistake:
localtime.c (1477-1484)
while (i > 0 &&
sp->lsis[i].ls_trans ==
sp->lsis[i - 1].ls_trans + 1 &&
sp->lsis[i].ls_corr ==
sp->lsis[i - 1].ls_corr + 1) {
++hit;
--i;
}
As far as I understand here are processed 'Leap' rules with '++' correction. If so, sp->lsis[i].ls_trans must be equal to sp->lsis[i - 1].ls_trans.
BR,
Igor
