Timezonedb is a PECL extension. Quote from
http://pecl.php.net/package/timezonedb

"This extension is a drop-in replacement for the builtin timezone
database that comes with PHP. You should only install this extension in
case you need to get a later version of the timezone database than the
one that ships with PHP."

It is perfectly possible to compile the extension for Windows. There is
one in my builds at http://www.apachelounge.com/viewtopic.php?t=6123

If you say "makes little sense", do you mean that the 'replacement' does
not work on Windows?

If the quote is true for Windows, there is no reason why it should not
be compiled officially and put at
http://windows.php.net/downloads/pecl/releases/
