I think that the current ~upstream for the tzcode is supposed to be
https://github.com/eggert/tz/ , but I haven't checked particularly
recently. (There was some excitement involving a legal action, etc., so
it had gone away and/or moved.) That said, I don't see a BUGS section at
all in the newctime.3 in that repo, and I also don't see the erroneous
line you quote in the history of that repo, so ... I'm not sure what
happened.

PR is fine, it gives us a place to look when we need to find things.

Thanks for pointing it out. I'll try to think about what the best route
to a fix is.
