Version 2024.1

Upstream version 2024a released 2024-02-01T17:28:56+00:00

Briefly:

Kazakhstan unifies on UTC+5 beginning 2024-03-01. Palestine springs forward a
week later after Ramadan. zic no longer pretends to support indefinite-past DST.
localtime no longer mishandles Ciudad Juárez in 2422.

Changes to future timestamps

Kazakhstan unifies on UTC+5. This affects Asia/Almaty and Asia/Qostanay which
together represent the eastern portion of the country that will transition from
UTC+6 on 2024-03-01 at 00:00 to join the western portion. (Thanks to Zhanbolat
Raimbekov.)

Palestine springs forward a week later than previously predicted in 2024 and
2025. (Thanks to Heba Hamad.) Change spring-forward predictions to the second
Saturday after Ramadan, not the first; this also affects other predictions
starting in 2039.

Changes to past timestamps

Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh's 1955-07-01 transition occurred at 01:00 not 00:00. (Thanks
to Đoàn Trần Công Danh.)

From 1947 through 1949, Toronto's transitions occurred at 02:00 not 00:00.
(Thanks to Chris Walton.)

In 1911 Miquelon adopted standard time on June 15, not May 15.

Changes to documentation

The strftime man page documents which struct tm members affect which conversion
specs, and that tzset is called. (Problems reported by Robert Elz and Steve
Summit.)
