Looking at docs/14035, I came across the following anomalies in a) tzfile.5 refers to 4 4-byte quantities in the header, however the header file "tzfile.h" defines 6. This bug is there is -CURRENT too. b) Missing word '20' in the description in -STABLE. c) The first field of the header is tzh_ttisgmtcnt in -STABLE (and in -CURRENT), not tzh_ttisstdcnt as claimed. The following patch for -STABLE corrects these errors and adds copyright info as a comment. Could you please review?

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.
