To partially answer my own question, /usr/local/etc/zoneinfo comes from
localtime.cc
#define TZDIR "/usr/local/etc/zoneinfo" /* Time zone object file directory */
There is a lot about that on google, this is the first hit
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/netbsd-bugs/1995/08/21/0006.html
That doesn't explain the F: drive.
