In case this hasn't been reported yet: The New Zealand Government has
just extended the period that Daylight Savings applies for in New
Zealand. It will now be from the last Sunday in Sept through first
Sunday in April. See:

Which leads to the following change to the australasia file I believe:
--- australasia 2007-04-03 02:11:34.000000000 +1200
+++ australasia.new 2007-05-02 13:08:24.000000000 +1200
