I'd just treat them as warnings. The version of zic from 2015f onwards doesn't warn about these lines.
In the future, once sufficient installations of zic have been upgraded, numeric abbreviations like '+04' in the input files will be replaced by '%z' and zic will automagically generate the numeric abbreviations.
You know, I've occasionally wondered what's the point of having a standard binary format (which has a performance cost compared to having one that uses platform-specific alignment and endianness) if you're not going to actually ship binary files.
