Per an old but not forgotten thread(*), I looked into moving the formatted
versions of the timezone-related man pages (e.g., date.1, ..., zic.8)
from 'djgpp/info' to 'djgpp/man/catN' for the 2.04 release.  This would
require only that we add the 'djgpp/man/cat[1358]' directories and make
a small patch to 'zoneinfo/src/makefile'.

OTOH, ISTR that the timezone files originate elsewhere, not with djgpp.
If so, the makefile might have to be patched every time the timezone
sources are updated, which some might see as an avoidable maintenance
burden.  So, perhaps I shouldn't bother with this.  Any other thoughts?
