It would be very helpful for us if we could get a release quickly that added
these to zone.tab (with new IDs and Links). Any possibility of that?

For the IDs, I'd suggest either Saint_Barthelemy or Gustavia for the first,
and either Saint_Martin or Marigot for the second.

From the CIA Factbook, here are the capitals and locations.

*name:* Gustavia
*geographic coordinates:* 17 53 N, 62 51 W
*time difference:* UTC-4 (1 hour behind Washington, DC, during Standard
Time)
*daylight savings:* +1 hour, starts 20 March and ends 17 October

*name:* Marigot
*geographical coordinates:* 18 04 N, 63 05 W
*time difference:* UTC-4 (1 hour behind Washington, DC, during Standard
Time)
*daylight savings:* +1 hour

These country codes were split off from Guadeloupe, and so had the same
timezone rules. So they can be initially Linked to Guadeloupe.

# Guadeloupe
# Zone    NAME        GMTOFF    RULES    FORMAT    [UNTIL]
Zone America/Guadeloupe    -4:06:08 -    LMT    1911 Jun 8    # Pointe a
Pitre
            -4:00    -    AST
