Looking in http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/etch/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2 I
notice the package tzdata is still stuck at version 2007b, which does not apply the time
zone changes listed in this bug report.
It seems apparent that version 2007f, which contains the fix, is marked to be put into
etch but since it has not yet been done, and the New Zealand daylight savings time is due
to come into effect in two weeks, this is now rather urgent.
The fix is already in the volatile archive (see
http://volatile.debian.org), in the etch-proposed-update archive and it
will also appear in the next release of etch. Alternatively you can also
download the new version by hand and use dpkg -i.
I would recommend re-opening this bug and upgrading its severity until the fix has been
applied.
That won't change anything as it is now out of control of the glibc team.
