Commit 51fd748

Browse files

Update time zone data files to tzdata release 2012e.
DST law changes in Morocco; Tokelau has relocated to the other side of the International Date Line; and apparently Olson had Tokelau's GMT offset wrong by an hour even before that. There are also a large number of non-significant changes in this update. Upstream took the opportunity to remove trailing whitespace, and the SCCS-style version numbers on the individual files are gone too.
