As you probably just saw, I just went ahead and got some information from Cyrus 
on how we currently do this from the Olson database, and shared it at 
<http://trac.calendarserver.org/wiki/UpdatingTimezones>.  I hope this is 
sufficient for your purposes.  It could probably be less of a multi-step  
manual process, so feel free to file a trac ticket anyway.

As I understand it though, in addition to the tool in question dealing with the 
Olson format and not tzdata, we also need a bit more information from the Olson 
database than the zoneinfo database uses, so it really will need to go back to 
the source material.  I don't think it can even be modified to derive the data 
from the tzdata package.
