+    On platforms that have EFTYPE, tzalloc now fails with errno set to
+    EFTYPE, not EINVAL, if it detects that the TZif file has an
+    invalid format or is not a regular file.  Formerly it did this
+    only on NetBSD, and only when the file was not a regular file.

+    Unprivileged programs no longer require TZif files to be regular
+    files or reject relative names containing ".." components.  This
+    reverts to the more-permissive 2025b behavior, as the stricter
+    behavior did not catch on in FreeBSD.
