Eelco Dolstra 1b5e860f65 Make /etc/localtime a direct symlink to the zoneinfo file
Some programs (notably the Java Runtime Environment) expect to be able
to extract the name of the time zone from the target of the
/etc/localtime symlink.  That doesn't work if /etc/localtime is a
symlink to /etc/static/localtime.  So make it a direct symlink.
