Of course, it is almost impossible to write code that works perfectly
without any testing. The patches here should now work.

I'm not happy with this solution, however. It seems as though it
requires a huge amount of work in updating Locations.xml, in a rather
unfortunate way. It could certainly be possible to allow <timezone>
entries for larger areas than just <location>s; for example, having one
under a <state> or <country> apply to all cities and locations under
that tag. However, I've attempted to change as little as possible with
these patches, and so haven't gone about implementing such a system.
