That is the sane and reasonable thing to do and the fact musl doesn't
do that automatically has broken two kernel builds for me (minor
annoyance, but still a real issue). The kernels boot but uname -a
says "Sat Sep 13 23:57:23 Time zone not s" which cuts off the year.
May seem silly but having to use Wolfram Alpha to calculate what year
the 13th of September fell on a Saturday is a bit annoying when you're
dealing with servers with long uptimes...
(The answer is 2014 and I pulled that from an old log. Don't worry,
I'm not actually running anything that old on anything.)
