Arrange to install a "posixrules" entry in our timezone database, so that
POSIX-style timezone specs that don't exactly match any database entry will be treated as having correct USA DST rules. Also, document that this can be changed if you want to use some other DST rules with a POSIX zone spec. We could consider changing localtime.c's TZDEFRULESTRING, but since that facility can only deal with one DST transition rule, it seems fairly useless now; might as well just plan to override it using a "posixrules" entry. Backpatch as far as 8.0. There isn't much we can do in 7.x ... either your libc gets it right, or it doesn't.
