    +         Enables Australian timezone support. This changes the interpretation
    +         of timezones in input date/time strings from US-centric to
    +         Australian-centric.  Specifically, 'EST' is changed from GMT-5 (US
    +         Eastern Standard Time) to GMT+10 (Australian Eastern Standard Time)
    +         and 'CST' is changed from GMT-5:30 (US Central Standard Time) to
    +         GMT+10:30 (Australian Central Standard Time).
