Additional info:
I originally observed the issue with 2013b-2, but it continues after
upgrading to 2013d-0wheezy1. For example, Zone America/Regina is a
"true" Olson zone. Saskatchewan and East-Saskatchewan are "Links".
I would expect Saskatchewan and East-Saskatchewan to point to a hard
file America/Regina, in order to mirror the definitions in the Olson files.
