I'm getting some warnings when running zic -d on the updated tzdata file:

Not sure if this is a version incompatibility or what:
$ zic --version

It is available at <https://github.com/eggert/tz> as commit 70161f48bc212678c58490f7faabc286c90b2a05. Although this is intended to be the next release, published as usual, it can take a bit of time to turn the crank so I thought I'd give the mailing list a heads-up.

I'd like to get all this stuff fixed soon, although we may have to wait until the spring silly season is over.
