NetBSD quill.porcupine.qc.ca 3.1 NetBSD 3.1 (QUILL_I386) #1: Thu Jan 18 23:29:30 EST 2007  anne@quill.porcupine.qc.ca:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/QUILL_I386 i386

>Description:
/usr/src/share/zoneinfo/northamerica does not contain the new
timezone changes for Canada, even after cvs update.  Result:
the time is wrong.
>How-To-Repeat:
Set your timezone to (for example) America/Montreal.
We should now be in daylight savings time, but we are not.
>Fix:
This seems to work, hope I did it correctly.  I'm not 100% sure
that this solution is correct, but it works for my time zone.
