Not at all, since ...
a) set_timezone() doesn't have anything to do with the problem you mentioned
and
b) ICU comes with a tool (not on haiku yet) that allows updating the
timezones embedded in libicu-dt. So once we've made that tools available,
you should be able to update timezones on your running system.
