    * The "right" TZif files are no longer installed by default.
    * -DTZ_RUNTIME_LEAPS=0 disables runtime support for leap seconds.
    * TZif files are no longer limited to 50 bytes of abbreviations.
    * zic is no longer limited to 50 leap seconds.
    * Several integer overflow bugs have been fixed.
  * Update to 2025c:
    * Update Baja California DST rules in 1953, 1961-1975
    * An unset TZ is no longer invalid when /etc/localtime is missing, and is abbreviated "UTC" not "-00". This reverts to 2024b behavior
