* time/tzfile.h, time/private.h, time/zdump.c, time/zic.c,
 	time/africa, time/asia, time/australasia, time/europe,
 	time/northamerica, time/southamerica: Updated from ADO 96h.

	* Make-dist (all-headers): Filter $(sysdep_headers) out of $(headers).
	(try-sysdeps, +sysdep-names): Check sysdeps/libm-ieee754 too.

	* Makerules (distinfo-vars): Add sysdep_headers.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Makefile (sysdep_headers): Append to
	this instead of $(headers).
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/Makefile: Likewise.

	* Make-dist [subdirs-dirs]: Don't prefix $(subdir-dirs) with
	$(subdir); we are already there.

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/sysv4/solaris2/sparc/Dist: Removed.

+#    BajaSur:   GMT+6
+#    General:   GMT+5
+#    
+# 3. The rest of the year, the times are as follows:
