Thank you all for your speedy and informative replies. I had a good
idea why you wouldn't symlink (for release consistency), but I wasn't
aware that there were format differences in the timezone files.

Currently Apple's format appears to work fine with postgresql. And
given the responses and to make a quick job of it I will be copying
Apple's files only on the machines affected instead of symlinking
until we can coordinate a new version update. It seems that we are
only being affected in Canada...

Thanks again,
Michael
