Current cogito behavior treats the timezone offset as if it's decimal,
but most zone offsets begin with a 0. As a result, the computation
in cg-Xlib uses the zone offset as an octal number. -0700 looks like
4 1/2 hours offset, rather than 7, and -0800 is an invalid octal
number.
This patch fixes the behavior to strip off leading 0s. It's ugly,
but it should produce the right values until someone with better
bash scripting skills than I can fix it.

It looks ok, but shouldn't this be
+ lsec=$(($sec + $dtz % 100 * 60 $sign $dtz / 100 * 3600))

Ah, yes, of course. I see that Dan Holmsand has also sent a patch (3/6)
to fix this. I haven't tested his very much, but it looks like a
cleaner and more comprehensive solution. Sigh.
