DST patch for RedHat Linux

[Andrew Bacchi]

My workstation was RH 8.  I googled and did not find any patches.  Just 
too old a dist.  I upgraded to RHAS 4 in about 2 hrs, that's including 
all my old data and apps.  But that was just a workstation.

I thought about just copying tzdata file from another version, but 
upgrading was the best answer.

Here is redhat's link to instructions.
