There have been recent test check errors on CRAN stemming from a recent update to the tzdata package. With that update, legacy timezone symlinks were dropped and now only continent/ocean plus city name are acceptable (along with a few backward links like "GB" and "NZ"). There are a few tests that use the dropped tz representations and those have been removed here. There are still plenty of remaining tests of the format_rfc2822_date() function, whose responsibility is to generate MIME-message compliant date/time strings.
