My zoneinfo dir is 10Mb; the raw original tzdata file
is less than 150k.

Here's a quick 'n' dirty procedure, assuming zoneinfo
is in the same place in 7.3 as fedora4.

You might want to back up your zoneinfo first with
        sudo cp -a  /usr/share/zoneinfo /usr/share/zoneinfo.orig


        wget ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/tzdata2006b.tar.gz
        tar zxf tzdata2006b.tar.gz
        sudo zic australasia
