- * library/clock.tcl (ReadZoneinfoFile): Corrected a bug where loading
- * tests/clock.test (clock-56.4): zoneinfo would fail if one
- timezone abbreviation was a proper tail of another, and zic used the
- same bytes of the file to represent both of them. Added a test case
- for the bug, using the same data that caused the observed failure
- "in the wild." [Bug 3470928]
