`chrono` or `time` 0.3 ?
As a result of the advisory these were implemented: https://github.com/x-hgg-x/tz-rs https://github.com/Kixunil/rl_localtime and the advisory also prompted a lot of discussion about solutions in this thread: https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/synchronized-ffi-access-to-posix-environment-variable-functions/15475
