I wasn't quite sure... what I mean here is that the "no rule" is in 
effect until Dec 29 (hence, the Arg rule is in effect starting Dec 30), 
but I definitively am not expert with tzdata... I'd like some 
confirmation from Paul or someone else knowledgable that the changes I 
made are necessary an correct... that is, I think that if they're not in 
place (whether they say Dec 29 or Dec 30), nothing will change in my 
machine where /etc/localtime points to 
/usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Argentina/Buenos_Aires...
