For others' information WordPress doesn't maintain list of timezones and DST transitions in its code. It relies on upstream PHP functionality for it, which includes so-called Olson database.

Database version can be checked in phpinfo() and can be updated by updating PHP itself or installed as separate timezonedb package from PECL.
