Since localtime(3) and gmtime(3) do not understand timezone other than
UTC and local timezone, it is impossible to handle timezone in general
by Time class, except we reimplement whole time functions.

But I like the idea of interoperability.  I'm going to fix Time#local
and Time#gm to work like

  Time.local(*ParseDate.parse(str))

And it also ignores timezone argument.

Ryan, I also fixed EWOULDBLOCK problem.  I will commit them soon.
