 tzfile.h is for use in handling timezone files (the output from 
 zic(8)), not for general calendar-related definitions.
 
 Why is userland relevant here?  I thought you were trying to 
 centralise the kernel's calendar-related definitions.
 
 DAYSTO2000 should be private to clock_subr.c; I don't think it 
 belongs in a header file.
