The information about Brazilian Daylight Savings Time is wrong in
Potato, all my Debian Boxes went UTC-2 on the first sunday of october.
This year in Brazil Daylight Savings Time starts on Oct 08, 2000 and
ends in Feb 18, 2001
This will surely cause problems, I think a security update is due, if
people go and just adjust the time on their servers we will have problems
again when the DST ends.
I have not tested that on later versions of glibc.

This problem should be fixed in glibc 2.3.1. glibc
timezone/southamerica has a following rule:
Rule Brazil 2000 2001 - Oct Sun>=8 0:00 1:00 S
Rule Brazil 2001 max - Feb Sun>=15 0:00 0 -
BTW, I don't why daylight savings time is end in 2001-02-14.
