Our friends at DEC should also note that Alaska and Hawaii have been part
of the US for, oh, 30 years or so now, and we even have entries in the
/etc/zoneinfo/US directory (Ultrix 4.0), but not in the installation menu.
The documentation wasn't very helpful in finding and fixing the timezones,
but at least we now show AKDT instead of GMT-9.
But once you poke around in zoneinfo, you find lots of neat timezones to
choose from, like Iran and Libya. I wonder what size installed base DEC has
in those countries? :-)
