That might explain why it gets updated not so often. Forcing errors with a
Spanish installation, so please forget about the description, the new
format is more consistent with findtimezone.c:

        {
                /* (UTC+04:30) Kabul */
                "Hora estßndar de Afganistßn", "Hora de verano de
Afganistßn",
                "FIXME"
        },

Could you verify that there are no complaints now with HEAD?

Nothing gets reported with current HEAD.
