Looking at docs/14035, I came across the following anomalies in
a) tzfile.5 refers to 4 4-byte quantities in the header, however
the header file "tzfile.h" defines 6. This bug is there is -CURRENT
too.
b) Missing word '20' in the description in -STABLE.
c) The first field of the header is tzh_ttisgmtcnt in -STABLE (and in
-CURRENT), not tzh_ttisstdcnt as claimed.
The following patch for -STABLE corrects these errors and adds copyright
info as a comment. Could you please review?
