incorrect timezone abbreviations #173

Hi, I've noticed that for some timezones eg. Africa/Tunis and Indian/Mauritius, the abbreviations retrieved with getTimezoneAbbreviation aren't correct, there seems to be a function (getAbbreviation) in date.js that adds an 'S' to the abbreviation from the Olson files so CET becomes CEST and MUT becomes MUST, making these abbreviations incorrect for these timezones, what is the reason for this?

Ugh, this is probably something very stupid like looking for a "D" as in 'daylight,' and inserting "S" if it doesn't find it.
