I used the parse_olson script (from DateTime-TimeZone-0.36) against
the latest Olson DB files (2006b); in
lib/DateTime/TimeZone/Asia/Jerusalem.pm, the last span produced came
out as:

    [
64272092400,
1.#INF,
64272085200,
1.#INF,
7200,
0,
'IT'
    ]

By comparison to the previous file, I'm guessing it should have been:

    [
64272092400,
DateTime::TimeZone::INFINITY,
64272085200,
DateTime::TimeZone::INFINITY,
7200,
0,
'IT'
    ]

I found DateTime-TimeZone-0.42, and it's parse_olson script did the same thing.

Is this a problem with the Olson file, or does it point to something not set up correctly in my environment?
