 The problem of course is the fact that although tzdata is available in the 
update / solve_pkgs directory it is not yet available in the rpmbd.

 rpm --dbpath /usr/lib/rpmdb/i386-redhat-linux/redhat --justdb -U glibc* 
tzdata*

 or probably more generally

 rpm --dbpath /usr/lib/rpmdb/i386-redhat-linux/redhat --justdb -U *.rpm

 issued from the update dir adds the new package(s) to the rpmdb and solves 
the issue :-).

Bye,
Leonard.
