Support for US Daylight Saving Time changes in 2007

The Start and Stop dates for Daylight Savings Time in US will change from 2007.

From Sun's bug database, it looks like Sun has handled this Daylight Saving Time changes in JDK 1.5.0_06.
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6317178

Does anyone know if they have handled this in earlier JDK releases (1.3.x, 1.4.x)? If not, do they have any plan to handle these changes?

1.3.1_18 had a timezone change.

1.4.2_11 had some timezone changes (but now there is a 1.4.2_12, so use that).

Not sure exactly what the timezone changes were, but check the release notes or give those JDKs a try.
