+1 for src/tools/, but the documentation note should probably be in
src/timezone/README. This task isn't especially coupled to release
times (at least not *our* release times). And it's definitely not
likely to happen at the times anyone would be consulting
RELEASE_CHANGES, because none of the release leadup work gets done
on Windows machines.
