  src/java.base/share/classes/sun/util/resources/TimeZoneNames.java:

  239         String SLST[] = new String[] {"Greenwich Mean Time", "GMT",
  240                                       "Sierra Leone Summer Time", "SLST",
  241                                       "Sierra Leone Time", "SLT"};

  251         String WART[] = new String[] {"Western Argentine Time", "WART",
  252                                       "Western Argentine Summer Time", "WARST",
  253                                       "Western Argentine Time", "WART"};

It seems these are no longer used.

-            {"Antarctica/Macquarie", new String[] {"Macquarie Island Time", "MIST",
-                                                   "Macquarie Island Summer Time", "MIST",
+            {"Antarctica/Macquarie", new String[] {"Macquarie Island Standard Time", "MIST",
+                                                   "Macquarie Island Daylight Time", "MIST",

The daylight saving time abbreviation should be MIDT.

Thanks,
Masayoshi
