Is this the right way to update the zoneinfo data
used for the time / timezone related calls..

cvsup -STABLE
cd  /usr/src/share/zoneinfo
make 
make install

I need to ensure that the zoneinfo is upto date on say a monthly cycle
and dont really want or need to recompile everything...
I looked at the Makefile and the included bsd.prog.mk file and 
decided that I dont need to learn _that much_ about makefiles .. ;-)

cheers
mjt
