Sourceware 28707 0 P2 RESOLVED assert in tzfile.c __tzfile_read striking with truncated timezones generated by tzcode-2021d and later 2022-01-04 18:02:17 UTC

Description Carlos O'Donell 2021-12-17 14:28:11 UTC 
We need to consider backporting this tzfile.c change to avoid asserts with generated binary timezone files.
