Though if the file for your locale is updated from sources
(e.g., the recent U.S. DST change), the copy called "local"
won't change along with it.  I noticed last summer that
I was suffering from exactly that sequence of events.

I've wondered for a while about the advisability of
  bind /adm/timezone/US_Eastern /adm/timezone/local
in /lib/namespace.local.
