I have a working RELENG_4 system, and I tested the install before 
committing. The main effect of the Makefile changes on the install is 
to move the systemv file behind the OLDTIMEZONES define. I didn't do 
that because I thought it would be a POLA violation.

The other install related change in the Makefile was using zic -m, but 
since that fix (I think rightly) hasn't been backported past RELENG_6, 
I didn't merge that change either. For both of these changes, the same 
goes for RELENG_5 btw.

The mtree change I think you're referring to (regarding Argentina) was 
committed by wollman on 2004/12/3. The mtree file in RELENG_4 is the 
same as HEAD for the zoneinfo section.

So like I said, I don't think anything is actually broken here, but if 
someone sees something broken that I don't, please feel free to fix 
it, I'm going to be afk for a while.

hth,

Doug

PS, I really hope that people didn't equate "wasn't hard to do" with 
"flying blind" here ...
