         Solaris supports two types of timezones:  POSIX timezones and zoneinfo
         timezones.  This patch incorporates the fix for "U.S. Energy Policy Act
         of 2005" for POSIX timezones, whereas Patch 113225-03 incorporates the
         fix for "U.S. Energy Policy Act of 2005" for zoneinfo timezones.  In
         Solaris, the default transition dates for POSIX timezones (when the
         transition date is not specified) use U.S. rules.
 
         Note this patch does not include the fix for DST changes in 2006
         for Australia. Those fixes are in aforementioned Patch 113225-03,
         where the zoneinfo timezones for Australia are fixed.
