I would have *strongly* preferred you to import tzcode separately from 
tzdata so as not to frustrate future updates of the tzdata.

The IANA tzdb project releases tzdata and tzcode in separate tarballs.

tzdata updates happen comparatively frequently and we like to issue 
errata notices for them.  tzcode doesn't change very often.

Would you mind backing this out and importing tzcode separately?

Thank you.

Philip
