 When we tell people that their clocks are wrong, it's frequently because
 they've set up their systems with the wrong time zone.  It would be
 helpful to tell torbrowser (or some other controller) about this
 information, so that it can give more useful error messages on time-
 related bootstrapping failures.

 One complication here is (IIUC) TB runs, and runs tor, with its TZ set to
 UTC.
