       Its is probably because you have to provide the full path with those
       old versions. With a RH 6.2 !

#### henocq:/u/robert >  zdump -v  /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Paris | grep 2007
/usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Paris  Sun Mar 25 00:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 25 01:59:59 2007 CET isdst=0 gmtoff=3600
/usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Paris  Sun Mar 25 01:00:00 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 25 03:00:00 2007 CEST isdst=1 gmtoff=7200
/usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Paris  Sun Oct 28 00:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Oct 28 02:59:59 2007 CEST isdst=1 gmtoff=7200

       which is correct !
       For the US/Central one gets :

#### henocq:/u/robert >  zdump -v  /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Central | grep 2007
/usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Central  Sun Apr  1 07:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Apr  1 01:59:59 2007 CST isdst=0 gmtoff=-21600
/usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Central  Sun Apr  1 08:00:00 2007 UTC = Sun Apr  1 03:00:00 2007 CDT isdst=1 gmtoff=-18000
/usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Central  Sun Oct 28 06:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Oct 28 01:59:59 2007 CDT isdst=1 gmtoff=-18000
/usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Central  Sun Oct 28 07:00:00 2007 UTC = Sun Oct 28 01:00:00 2007 CST isdst=0 gmtoff=-21600
