This code is taken from the upstream tzcode distribution, in which
TZDEFAULT can be NULL. (Or so I assume anyway without having looked.)
I'm disinclined to diverge from their code just to satisfy some static
analyzer complaining about useless code --- any reasonable C compiler
will discard that code, so it's not a problem.

If there is actually a bug here, I'm not seeing it.
