I do not think 03 vs 02 makes any difference wrt what I was
wondering.

You feed tz/100 to "%+03d:" (the "sign and hour" part of the
timezone).  What if tz is -30, i.e. less than an hour but still a
negative offset?  tz/100 would be zero and tz % 100 would be -30.

    tz = -30;
    printf("%+03d:%02d", tz / 100, abs(tz % 100));

would show what?
