Bug Description

On the 30th of April 2007, the New Zealand Department of Internal Affairs announced that New Zealand would be extending its daylight saving this year by 3 more weeks.
See http://www.dia.govt.nz/diawebsite.nsf/wpg_URL/Services-Daylight-Saving-Daylight-saving-to-be-extended?OpenDocument

The fix for this is very simple. Either update the tzdata package to the new tzdata version ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/tzdata2007f.tar.gz
or apply the patch I'm about to upload to the source tree and rebuild the package.

This is the effective diff between 2007e and 2007f which applies to all stable releases. There are only DST rule changes, no new, removed, or merged TZs, so this is no problem at all.

I compared the output of "zdump -v Pacific/Chtaham" before and after the update. They are different. I will mark the bug as verification-done. I tested feisty, dapper and edgy successfully.
