  | that the only reason you'd need < and > is if the name contains non
  | alphabetic characters (are there any such in tz data now?  There used
  | to be some with spaces but I thought we removed them all).

They are needed for the entries containing '+' or '-' in the zone
names (Etc/GMT+4 etc).   The "localtime" (and "Factory") "zone" still
contains spaces.
