Install zone1970.tab in addition to zone.tab (like D20646 for base).
The old logic to remove countries from zone.tab doesn't port to
zone1970.tab since some lines might have to be patched more than
once. Replace it with some awk.
Remove LEAPFILE reference that wasn't being set anyway.
Fix plist entry for Etc/UCT, which is (since 2019a) part of
"backward" and not present otherwise.
Make BACKWARD not be the default, since (a) it's not the base system's
default and (b) that stuff is all deprecated.
Update comment about check-plist to include a reminder to check both with
and without BACKWARD (this would have caught the existing plist error).
Remove no-longer-needed include of bsd.port.pre.mk.
Fix location and name of iso3166 file in comments in zone1970.tab, also
to match base system.
Add back a test-pkgplist target, because it turns out check-plist is not
strict enough to handle the case of moving entries into or out of the
"backward" set; check-plist doesn't error if a file is present in STAGEDIR
but is commented out in the plist, but we want that to be noticed.

Briefly:
Sao Tome and Principe switches back from +01 to +00 on 2019-01-01.
Qyzylorda, Kazakhstan moved from +06 to +05 on 2018-12-21.
New zone Asia/Qostanay because Qostanay, Kazakhstan didn't move.
Metlakatla, Alaska observes PST this winter only.
Guess Morocco will continue to adjust clocks around Ramadan.
Add predictions for Iran from 2038 through 2090.
- North Korea switches back to +09 on 2018-05-05.
- The main format uses negative DST again, for Ireland etc.
- New 's' and 'd' suffixes in SAVE columns of Rule and Zone lines.
Changes to future time stamps
Turkey switched from EET/EEST (+02/+03) to permanent +03,
effective 2016-09-07. (Thanks to Burak AYDIN.) Use "+03" rather
than an invented abbreviation for the new time.
New leap second 2016-12-31 23:59:60 UTC as per IERS Bulletin C 52.
(Thanks to Tim Parenti.)
Changes to past time stamps
For America/Los_Angeles, spring-forward transition times have been
corrected from 02:00 to 02:01 in 1948, and from 02:00 to 01:00 in
1950-1966.
For zones using Soviet time on 1919-07-01, transitions to UT-based
time were at 00:00 UT, not at 02:00 local time. The affected
zones are Europe/Kirov, Europe/Moscow, Europe/Samara, and
Europe/Ulyanovsk. (Thanks to Alexander Belopolsky.)
Changes to past and future time zone abbreviations
The Factory zone now uses the time zone abbreviation -00 instead
of a long English-language string, as -00 is now the normal way to
represent an undefined time zone.
Several zones in Antarctica and the former Soviet Union, along
with zones intended for ships at sea that cannot use POSIX TZ
strings, now use numeric time zone abbreviations instead of
invented or obsolete alphanumeric abbreviations. The affected
zones are Antarctica/Casey, Antarctica/Davis,
Antarctica/DumontDUrville, Antarctica/Mawson, Antarctica/Rothera,
Antarctica/Syowa, Antarctica/Troll, Antarctica/Vostok,
Asia/Anadyr, Asia/Ashgabat, Asia/Baku, Asia/Bishkek, Asia/Chita,
Asia/Dushanbe, Asia/Irkutsk, Asia/Kamchatka, Asia/Khandyga,
Asia/Krasnoyarsk, Asia/Magadan, Asia/Omsk, Asia/Sakhalin,
Asia/Samarkand, Asia/Srednekolymsk, Asia/Tashkent, Asia/Tbilisi,
Asia/Ust-Nera, Asia/Vladivostok, Asia/Yakutsk, Asia/Yekaterinburg,

Europe/Minsk, Europe/Samara, Europe/Volgograd, and
Indian/Kerguelen. For Europe/Moscow the invented abbreviation MSM
was replaced by +05, whereas MSK and MSD were kept as they are not
our invention and are widely used.
Changes to zone names
Rename Asia/Rangoon to Asia/Yangon, with a backward compatibility link.

I did not fix ports that were such a mess that I could not figure out
what they really wanted to do. I also did not change ports that had
some version of an auto-plist code in post-install, for the same reason.

Changes affecting future time stamps
America/Caracas switches from -0430 to -04 on 2016-05-01 at 02:30.
(Thanks to Alexander Krivenyshev for the heads-up.)
Asia/Magadan switches from +10 to +11 on 2016-04-24 at 02:00.
(Thanks to Alexander Krivenyshev and Matt Johnson.)
New zone Asia/Tomsk, split off from Asia/Novosibirsk. It covers
Tomsk Oblast, Russia, which switches from +06 to +07 on 2016-05-29
at 02:00. (Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.)
Azerbaijan no longer observes DST. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
Chile reverts from permanent to seasonal DST. (Thanks to Juan
Correa for the heads-up, and to Tim Parenti for corrections.)
Guess that future transitions are August's and May's second
Saturdays at 24:00 mainland time. Also, call the period from
2014-09-07 through 2016-05-14 daylight saving time instead of
standard time, as that seems more appropriate now.
Changes affecting past time stamps
New zone Europe/Kirov, split off from Europe/Volgograd. It covers
Kirov Oblast, Russia, which switched from +04/+05 to +03/+04 on
1989-03-26 at 02:00, roughly a year after Europe/Volgograd made
the same change. (Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.)
Russia and nearby locations had daylight-saving transitions on
1992-03-29 at 02:00 and 1992-09-27 at 03:00, instead of on
1992-03-28 at 23:00 and 1992-09-26 at 23:00. (Thanks to Stepan
Golosunov.)
Many corrections to historical time in Kazakhstan from 1991
through 2005. (Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.) Replace Kazakhstan's
invented time zone abbreviations with numeric abbreviations.
Europe/Kaliningrad and Europe/Vilnius changed from +03/+04 to
+02/+03 on 1989-03-26, not 1991-03-31. Europe/Volgograd changed
from +04/+05 to +03/+04 on 1988-03-27, not 1989-03-26.
(Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.)
Changes to commentary

Changes affecting future time stamps
America/Cayman will not observe daylight saving this year after all.
Revert our guess that it would. (Thanks to Matt Johnson.)
Asia/Chita switches from +0800 to +0900 on 2016-03-27 at 02:00.
(Thanks to Alexander Krivenyshev.)
Asia/Tehran now has DST predictions for the year 2038 and later,
to be March 21 00:00 to September 21 00:00. This is likely better
than predicting no DST, albeit off by a day every now and then.
New zones Europe/Astrakhan and Europe/Ulyanovsk for Astrakhan and
Ulyanovsk Oblasts, Russia, both of which will switch from +03 to +04 on
2016-03-27 at 02:00 local time. They need distinct zones since their
post-1970 histories disagree. New zone Asia/Barnaul for Altai Krai and
Altai Republic, Russia, which will switch from +06 to +07 on the same date
and local time. Also, Asia/Sakhalin moves from +10 to +11 on 2016-03-27
at 02:00. (Thanks to Alexander Krivenyshev for the heads-up, and to
Matt Johnson and Stepan Golosunov for followup.)
As a trial of a new system that needs less information to be made up,
the new zones use numeric time zone abbreviations like "+04"
instead of invented abbreviations like "ASTT".
Haiti will not observe DST in 2016. (Thanks to Jean Antoine via
Steffen Thorsen.)
Palestine's spring-forward transition on 2016-03-26 is at 01:00, not 00:00.
(Thanks to Hannah Kreitem.) Guess future transitions will be March's last
Saturday at 01:00, not March's last Friday at 24:00.
Norfolk moves from +1130 to +1100 on 2015-10-04 at 02:00 local time.
Fiji's 2016 fall-back transition is scheduled for January 17, not 24.
Fort Nelson, British Columbia will not fall back on 2015-11-01. It has
effectively been on MST (-0700) since it advanced its clocks on 2015-03-08.
New zone America/Fort_Nelson.

Morocco will suspend DST from 2015-06-14 03:00 through 2015-07-19 02:00,

Assume Cayman Islands will observe DST starting next year, using US rules.
Although it isn't guaranteed, it is the most likely.

Egypt will not observe DST in 2015 and will consider canceling it

Change affecting past and future time zone abbreviations
The abbreviations for Hawaii-Aleutian standard and daylight times
have been changed from HAST/HADT to HST/HDT, as per US Government
Printing Office style. This affects only America/Adak since 1983,
as America/Honolulu was already using the new style.
Release 2015c - 2015-04-11 08:55:55 -0700
Changes affecting future time stamps
Egypt's spring-forward transition is at 24:00 on April's last Thursday,
not 00:00 on April's last Friday. 2015's transition will therefore be on
Thursday, April 30 at 24:00, not Friday, April 24 at 00:00. Similar fixes
apply to 2026, 2037, 2043, etc. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
Release 2015b - 2015-03-19 23:28:11 -0700

Mongolia will start observing DST again this year, from the last
Saturday in March at 02:00 to the last Saturday in September at 00:00.
(Thanks to Ganbold Tsagaankhuu.)
Palestine will start DST on March 28, not March 27. Also,
correct the fall 2014 transition from September 26 to October 24.
Adjust future predictions accordingly. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
Changes affecting past time stamps
The 1982 zone shift in Pacific/Easter has been corrected, fixing a 2015a
regression. (Thanks to Stuart Bishop for reporting the problem.)
Some more zones have been turned into links, when they differed
from existing zones only for older time stamps. As usual,
these changes affect UTC offsets in pre-1970 time stamps only.
Their old contents have been moved to the 'backzone' file.
The affected zones are: America/Antigua, America/Cayman,
Pacific/Midway, and Pacific/Saipan.
Changes affecting time zone abbreviations
Correct the 1992-2010 DST abbreviation in Volgograd from "MSK" to "MSD".

will shift from Central Time with DST to Eastern Time without DST
on 2015-02-01 at 02:00. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen and Gwillim Law.)
Chile will not change clocks in April or thereafter; its new standard time

Iceland observed DST in 1919 and 1921, and its 1939 fallback
transition was Oct. 29, not Nov. 29. Remove incorrect data from
Shanks about time in Iceland between 1837 and 1908.

Many pre-1989 time stamps have been corrected for Asia/Seoul and
Asia/Pyongyang, based on sources for the Korean-language Wikipedia
entry for time in Korea. (Thanks to Sanghyuk Jung.) Also, no
longer guess that Pyongyang mimicked Seoul time after World War II,
as this is politically implausible.
Some more zones have been turned into links, when they differed

Africa/Dar_es_Salaam, Africa/Djibouti, Africa/Kampala,
Africa/Mogadishu, Indian/Antananarivo, Indian/Comoro, and
Indian/Mayotte.
Changes affecting commentary
The commentary is less enthusiastic about Shanks as a source,
and is more careful to distinguish UT from UTC.
Lots of historical data
Pacific/Fiji will go into DST from 2014-11-02 to 2015-01-18
Pacific/Bougainville will go from UTC+10 to UTC+11.
Europe/Minsk will go from FET to MSK.
Since FreeBSD 8.4 and FreeBSD 9.1 make(1) do support :tu and :tl as a
replacement for :U and :L (which has been marked as deprecated)
bmake which is the default on FreeBSD 10+ only support by default
:tu/:tl a hack has been added at the time to support :U and :L to ease
migration. This hack is now not necessary anymore

- Israel:
As of 2013, DST starts at 02:00 on the Friday before the last
Sunday in March. DST ends at 02:00 on the first Sunday after
October 1, unless it occurs on the second day of the Jewish Rosh
Hashana holiday, in which case DST ends a day later (i.e. at 02:00
the first Monday after October 2). [Rosh Hashana holidays are
factored in until 2100.]
