Bug#561970: libdate-manip-perl: cannot be used in taint (-T) mode

Following up, it appears that the problem is that Date::Manip::TZ does 
not understand SystemV timezones as used by Debian. My /etc/timezone 
file contains:

   SystemV/MST7MDT

Changing it to:

   America/Edmonton

fixes the insecure path taint error.
