Looking inside tzdata2006p.tar.gz at the file for North America, the
comments indicate that the new U.S rules were added to the data in
2005, so there shouldn't be any problem.  After untarring, 

$ grep US.*2007 northamerica
Rule    US      2007    max     -       Mar     Sun>=8  2:00    1:00    D
Rule    US      2007    max     -       Nov     Sun>=1  2:00    0       S
