      the Timezone class contains the daylight savings rules.
      customer would like these rules to be picked up from the
      underlying OS's config files.

      customer's request:
      >In some countries the dates for this
      >time changes,
      >change for one year to the other. The sysadmin have to update the "zoneinfo"
      >source files accordingly,
      >in order for the O.S. to make the switch properly.
      >It would be great if java would pick it up automatically from the O.S.
      >without any special intervention.


      customer is running on linux but this would presumably need to
      be done on all platforms if at all.
