Hi Nathan,

Thanks for tracking down this incompatibility.

That's OK with me.  We can put a directive in $_TZ (and fill it in from 
$_PSL) to give another location of those two files.

I don't mind changing it, but I'm also not sure what the future of 
tz_select.php is (It's not currently linked in the navbar or anything).  
That stuff should probably be migrated into the user profile page.  

In checking this out, I did find a bug in psl_getLocalInfo that resulted 
in a silly sentence, "The current time is:" (then nothing).  There's an 
easy fix which I'll commit.
