IOW, save the TZ string
("floating", "local", "America/Chicago") and then
re-grab a ref to the
DT::TZ singleton as needed.  That way, you don't
have to freeze the DT::TZ
at all.
Oh yeah.  That's what it already does ;)
It should do that, but there seems to be something wrong:
$dt = DateTime->today;
$dt->set_time_zone( "America/Chicago" );
print $dt->STORABLE_freeze, "\n" '
utc_rd_days:732005|utc_rd_secs:0|rd_nanosecs:0|version:0.28DateTime::Locale::root=HASH(0x838d4a4)DateTime::TimeZone::America::Chicago=HASH(0x8328ca0)SCALAR(0x8328da8)
Note that this was added in DT::TZ 0.26.  DT.pm itself didn't have to be 
changed, IIRC.
