Why is this even a problem?  Already written programs will not be using the
new strict tzinfo.

They will if their tzinfo provider switches to tzstrict.

It is not our problem if a third-party library makes backwards incompatible 
changes.

We will still be supporting all three types in the stlib: naive, aware, and 
strict.

If this new 'strict' support still has buggy behaviour around time shifts, why 
are we bothering?
