Thanks, that sounds like the best guess. I'll soon send out a proposed patch along these lines. Along with this I'll send out some lower-priority patches that have been accumulating. The only other patch worth noting is one that will allow 24:00 as a valid UTC offset in the POSIX string at the end of binary version-2-format time zone files. Formerly, zic limited this to 23:59:59, but the 2008 edition of POSIX changed to allow 24:00 and tzfile.5 specifies POSIX so this will fix zic to match the documented behavior. People who write binary tz file readers may need to adjust them accordingly.
There should be 7 proposed patches total. I've updated the github experimental repository to contain these patches.
