They provide a whole different set of format strings, so I wouldn't
exactly say they don't do anything the base classes don't. And fixing
a zillion components and code that uses these strings again isn't
really quite my idea of fun. So isn't it possible to make them not
rely on copies of the time zone info?

NSTimeZone and NSTimestampFormatter are deprecated because of their
reliance on internal copy of the time zone information. They do not
provide any services not provided by the base Java classes TimeZone
and SimpleDateFormat. Whether you are working with 5.3 or 5.4 please
move out of those classes. To my knowledge 5.3 only uses them for
GMT time/date conversion which is safe, and I think 5.4 has no
references to them.
The base Java classes rely on the time zone info embedded in the
Java VM which is regularly updated. If you need some really urgent
update there is a Sun tool to load the latest and greatest. For more
