File revert-systemv-deprecation.patch of Package timezone.38182
This reverts the System V names deprecation as they are known to break many
testsuites (cctz, dateparser, glib2.0, gnustep-base, etc.). This is basically a
partial revert of upstream commits a0b09c023008 ("Mark CET, CST6CDT etc. as
obsolescent") and 782d082623aa ("Make EET, MET and WET links")
