 Did you submit it to Arthur David Olson <ado at elsie.nci.nih.gov> for
 inclusion into the next tzdata version?  We're tracking it, and it
 would be easier to just import a new version when it gets updated.
 I've just checked the latest version, tzdata2006o, and it doesn't
 include this change yet.
