Re-Request for review: pytz and python-dateutil

[Orion Poplawski]

Never got a review last time, trying again:

I'm attempting to shift my python-matplotlib package to use upstream
versions of pytz and dateutil.  It bundles a version of each with it,
but will not install if already present.  So, it seems best to provide
official versions of pytz and python-dateutil and have python-matplotlib
require these to be present at build.

So:

pytz - World Timezone Definitions for Python
Author: 	Stuart Bishop <stuart at stuartbishop.net>
Introduction

pytz brings the Olson tz database into Python. This library allows
accurate and cross platform timezone calculations using Python 2.3 or
higher. It also solves the issue of ambiguous times at the end of
daylight savings, which you can read more about in the Python Library
Reference (datetime.tzinfo).

Amost all (over 540) of the Olson timezones are supported [*].
