Hi Sean,

Thanks for the review. It appears I missed jdk/test/sun/util/calendar/zi/tzdata,
webrev has been updated to include the test data update.

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sherman/8013386/webrev

I will update TCKZoneRulesProvider.java separately in JSR310 repo, this def is
actually is not being used by anyone anymore, just need to be removed.

jdk/makefiles/GendataTimeZone.gmk is no longer used, need to be removed, I
will remove it separately later.


Masayoshi,

The update also included the two changes needed to fix/workaround the following 2
issues found during running the regression test

      jdk/test/sun/util/calendar/zi/TestZoneInfo310.java,

due to the changes for Rule Palestine and the corresponding Zone Asia/Gaza and
Asia/Hebron [1].

(1) Now the Rule Palestine has the def of "lastThu 24:00", similar to Asia/Amman, so
these two zones need to be handled specially in ZoneInfoFile as well [2]

(2) Rule Palestine has 2 day-saving changes in 2011, so it has 4 transitions for 2011
when returned from Rule.getRules(int year). Unfortunately it appears the Comparator
for Arrays.sorting is incorrectly implemented when comparing two longs [3]. The directly
consequence of this decade-old bug is that the returned list has the wrong order for
2011/08/01/xxx and 2011/08/30/xxx

Please help review.

Thanks!
-Sherman
