Tom Lane 1f87181e12 Sync our copy of the timezone library with IANA tzcode master. 
This patch absorbs some unreleased fixes for symlink manipulation bugs
introduced in tzcode 2016g.  Ordinarily I'd wait around for a released
version, but in this case it seems like we could do with extra testing,
in particular checking whether it works in EDB's VMware build environment.
This corresponds to commit aec59156abbf8472ba201b6c7ca2592f9c10e077 in
https://github.com/eggert/tz.

Per a report from Sandeep Thakkar, building in an environment where hard
links are not supported in the timezone data installation directory failed,
because upstream code refactoring had broken the case of symlinking from an
existing symlink.  Further experimentation also showed that the symlinks
were sometimes made incorrectly, with too many or too few "../"'s in the
symlink contents.

This should get back-patched, but first let's see what the buildfarm
makes of it.  I'm not too sure about the new dependency on linkat(2).

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
