25.4. Time [sec_25-1-4]

Default Time Zone

Platform Dependent: No platform supports this currently
The variable CUSTOM:*DEFAULT-TIME-ZONE* contains the default time zone used by ENCODE-UNIVERSAL-TIME and DECODE-UNIVERSAL-TIME. It is initially set to -1 (which means 1 hour east of Greenwich, i.e., Mid European Time).

The time zone in a decoded time does not necessarily have be an INTEGER, but (as FLOAT or RATIONAL number) it should be a multiple of 1/3600.
