Re: does Calendar understand DST rules for past years?

It seems that the best thing to do is simply delete this paragraph:

(I see no need to document in the manual the possibility of
setting calendar-dst-check-each-year-flag to nil.)

Do you see any problem with that solution?
Any more that needs to be done?
