No, I think it's a glibc bug.  When I build tzcode on Solaris 8, and
use it to run both 'zic' and 'zdump', I get the following output:

$ ./zdump -v Africa/Abidjan
Africa/Abidjan  Fri Dec 13 20:45:52 1901 UTC = Fri Dec 13 20:29:44 1901 LMT isdst=0
Africa/Abidjan  Sat Dec 14 20:45:52 1901 UTC = Sat Dec 14 20:29:44 1901 LMT isdst=0
Africa/Abidjan  Mon Jan  1 00:16:07 1912 UTC = Sun Dec 31 23:59:59 1911 LMT isdst=0
Africa/Abidjan  Mon Jan  1 00:16:08 1912 UTC = Mon Jan  1 00:16:08 1912 GMT isdst=0
Africa/Abidjan  Mon Jan 18 03:14:07 2038 UTC = Mon Jan 18 03:14:07 2038 GMT isdst=0
Africa/Abidjan  Tue Jan 19 03:14:07 2038 UTC = Tue Jan 19 03:14:07 2038 GMT isdst=0

so it doesn't have the problems that you mentioned.
