This patch is used on openSUSE versions older than 12.2.
Back then, /etc/localtime was either a hard link to a zone
file in /usr/share/zoneinfo or a copy of it.
By default, zic tries the following approaches to create
/etc/localtime:
1. Hard link
2. Symbolic link
3. File copy
This patch changes the order to:
1. Hard link
2. File copy
3. Symbolic link
