>Description:
All locations in Ukraine belong to the same timezone (EEST), so there is
no point, to ask user to pick his region, if any of his choices result 
in the same timezone setting. It is even stranger, how those four regions
and their naming were picked, neither official administrative boundaries
nor naming were used, in general there is no particular logical reasons 
to be seen.

Looks like clear case of some sort of political/ethnical revisionism, 
which certainly does not belong to the scope of FreeBSD project.
>How-To-Repeat:
Run /stand/sysinstall, choose Configuration->TimeZone->Europe->Ukraine,
check result of choosing any region (all will set TZ to EEST).
>Fix:
Set EEST time zone for entire Ukraine, like for the rest of East European 
countries.
