I think so.  I'm glad someone raised the issue.

For GNU/Linux and BSD-based systems, languages other than Java use data
files for time zone changes, so you'd need to check if your tzdata package
is new enough (use Google to find out how).  I'm surprised to learn that
Java does it a different way.  Are we really shipping time zone
information in gcc?  Doesn't it change every month or so (when considering
the 180 or so countries in the world)?
