[Bug localedata/6959] New: glibc 2.7 overwrites /etc/localtime symlink

["sandalle at sourcemage dot org" <sourceware-bugzilla at sourceware dot org>]

See http://bugs.sourcemage.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14548

$ ls -lah /etc/localtime
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 30 Jun 25 11:51 /etc/localtime ->
/usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Pacific

# Install glibc
Our package uses `make install` and has no modifications related to localtime

$ ls -lah /etc/localtime
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Jun 25 18:22 /etc/localtime ->
../usr/share/zoneinfo/Factory

This did not use to happen with glibc (as late as 2.6).
