Thanks for the bug report. Here's an untested patch to glibc/timezone/Makefile to fix that timing problem. (Your symlink fix to zic.c is also welcome, but that's a separate problem.)
Can you please test this patch? If it works for you, we can submit it to bug-glibc as "the consensus of the tz experts" (all 2 of us :-).

Hi Paul, meanwhile I have recompiled and reinstalled glibc-2.2.5, using the above patch (as well as the symlink fix to zic.c). As to be expected everything has worked fine, so I would suggest that you submit it to bug-glibc. NB: I hadn't realized that "the entries in systemv were all changed from Zone to Link lines"; this obviously makes this patch necessary. regards Peter Breitenlohner <peb@mppmu.mpg.de>
