This bug is there is -CURRENT > too. tzfile(5) should not reference tzfile.h -- it's an internal header, not for public consumption. tzfile.5 may well be more correct -- there is some amount of version skew between libc and zic(8). (For example, the current file format includes a magic number at the beginning of the file, which libc doesn't know about or check for.) -GAWollman -- Garrett A.
