I suspect that they are comments in the zone.tab file and hence shouldn't be translated. However, if that's the case, please remove those comments or otherwise make sure that they aren't fetched by xgettext - having them in the pot file makes unnecessary, unused work for translators, clutters up the translations, and makes the translation statistics and tracking inaccurate.
they are included in the GUI timezone selecter. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30869
What I want to know is if the messages mentioned in *this* report are displayed to the end user. If not, they should be removed. I really doubt that messages like "# This file contains a table with the following columns:" are displayed in the GUI installer?
I don't know how those got in anaconda.pot - when I ran make update-po they all fell out.
