I have some older Red Hat builds (circa 7.x), and I can't find any glibc patches with the newer time zone information. On other *nix flavors they are flat files, and can be edited with vi, but with Red Hat they're binary. Get the current zone files from ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub. Use zic to compile them, cp or link the appropriate one to /etc/localtime, and perhaps run timeconfig or whatever is available on your system.
