Palestine will fall back at 00:00, not 01:00. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
Changes affecting API
The types of the global variables 'timezone' and 'altzone' (if present)
have been changed back to 'long'. This is required for 'timezone'
by POSIX, and for 'altzone' by common practice, e.g., Solaris 11.
These variables were originally 'long' in the tz code, but were
mistakenly changed to 'time_t' in 1987; nobody reported the
incompatibility until now. The difference matters on x32, where
'long' is 32 bits and 'time_t' is 64. (Thanks to Elliott Hughes.)
Changes affecting the build procedure
Avoid long strings in leapseconds.awk to work around a mawk bug.
