The line in my code that spawns this:
{{{
time_zone_ptr timezone;
string tz(""UTC0"");  // may be changed
//...
timezone.reset(new posix_time_zone(tz.c_str()));  // warnings from here
}}}

The warnings occur within body of `julian_no_leap()` at the instantiation of `new partial_date_dst_rule`, specifically, one each for the start_rule and end_rule constructors.
