The official location of the zone files is from 
ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/  (tzdata)

The NetBSD code is at src/share/zoneinfo.

I don't know if there is binary format changes. But you could probably 
regenerate the timezone files as needed.

I haven't tested, but maybe something like:

zic -d ~/zoneinfo australasia

(You may need to check out -L leapseconds or other stuff too. You can see 
some examples in the Makefile.)
