The patch touches the timezone/tzfile.h header even though (IIUC) it comes from another project. I'm not familiar with the process for keeping the timezone directory in sync with tzcode. Please let me know how you'd like to go about making this change.For tzcode the normal practice is a bulk update from the latest release of tzcode. We might consider a fix from https://github.com/eggert/tz.git if something newer than the latest release is needed in a particular case, but release versions are preferred.
Okay, thanks. I've read that you run periodic Glibc builds with the latest GCC so I wanted to give you a heads up on this change and the patch to avoid breaking them. Unless that's not a concern (do you use -Werror in those builds?) what is the best way to coordinate this update? I CC Paul for his input in case updating tzcode first is important. Martin
