If you are watching this closely on Nov 1, then there is one more thing
I'll mention just FYI. The class TimeZoneDstTransitionWatcher maintains
a process that watches for DST transitions and makes sure Squeak
handles them correctly. Details are in the class comment, but I mention
it because the watcher process must be kept running. In other words, if
you notice that process in your process browser, don't kill it ;-)
