As there is no reliable tzcode/tzdata mirror (there is one for old archives:
ftp://munnari.oz.au/pub/oldtz/ but it only has old versions, not current), and 
as I've touched this too and asked myself what to do with old recipes (some of 
them are unbuildable for the same reason of missing archives), maybe we should 
adopt some policy wrt tzcode/tzdata.

I don't see any value in old tzdata/tzcode-native recipes as tzcode is only 
used to compile tzdata and compiled tzdata should be compatible with any 
version of glibc and it's good to have it latest. So I think we should only 
leave latest tzdata version and move that forward whenever someone discovers 
that elsie.nci.nih.gov dropped that version. Same for tzcode.
