Pull requests with additional test cases are most welcome. I've made some additional progress in my dateutil fork [1]. The tzfile class is now fold-aware. The tzfile implementation of tzinfo takes the history of local time type changes from a binary zoneinfo file. These files are installed on the majority of UNIX platforms. More testing is needed, but I think my fork is now close to meeting Tim's challenge. Please note that you need to run the modified dateutil fork [1] code under PEP 495 fork of CPython.
