Yep, that's your problem. From my logs of tzdata-2013d I see:
for tz in etcetera southamerica northamerica europe africa antarctica \
asia australasia backward pacificnew solar87 solar88 solar89 \
systemv; do
zic -L /dev/null -d $ZONEINFO -y "sh yearistype.sh" ${tz}
zic -L /dev/null -d $ZONEINFO/posix -y "sh yearistype.sh" ${tz}
zic -L leapseconds -d $ZONEINFO/right -y "sh yearistype.sh" ${tz}
done
Note the last line in that for loop, which uses the leapseconds file to
generate the tz data in the 'right' directory. That's where your 26
second discrepancy is coming from. My advice would be to just upgrade
to tzdata-2013g from the latest SVN instructions.
Regards,
Matt.
