Hi, all

I found that there is a 'new' dir  /usr/share/zoneinfo-leaps
It includes files almost the same ones in /usr/share/zoneinfo/right/

I checked the md5 of every files under those two dir. And found that
they are the same ones.

The only exception is /usr/share/zoneinfo/right/US/Pacific-New, which
has no counterpart under zoneinfo-leaps.

ls cmd told me that Pacific-New is a hard link  to Pacific, Los_Angeles.
