Well, a person who builds from source has already got the zic program;
all we need do is document someplace (more visible than now) how to drop
the tzdata update into the source tree and reinstall the files.

For people using prebuilt packages, it's really the packager's problem.
I think most packagers are going to move to depending on a system
timezone DB if at all possible.
