Solaris 8 and up, you can get patches from Sun, all of which require 
a reboot to reload the time zones.
There may be other patches for Java. Solaris 7 and below, got to roll 
your own and make sure you're using the non-POSIX TZ format which is 
not linked to libc:

The terix.com TZ patches come with a handly little test program.
