Huh ... I would not have guessed that. Can you track down exactly
where it's failing?

We absorbed some new code in zic.c for creating subdirectories of the
target timezone directory, and said code seemed a bit odd to me,
but I supposed that the IANA guys had debugged it already. Maybe not.
Or maybe the problem is with some specific input file that gets
reached somewhere in that range?
