Test case:

Current situation:

$ LANG= TZ=America/Argentina/Buenos_Aires date 
Sat Oct 17 09:14:43 ART 2009
$ LANG= TZ=America/Argentina/Buenos_Aires date -d tomorrow
Sun Oct 18 10:14:46 ARST 2009

-> Argentina would switch to DST, which has just been changed. I'm using
Magerita's patch which is straightforward:

+# Margarita Manterola:
+# Same as always, Argentina's government just decided to change its mind
+# regarding DST, 2 days in advance.
