Description:
------------
Australia/ACT and Australia/Canberra timezones are missing from 
DateTimeZone::listIdentifiers() , they work correctly when creating a date eg $dt 
= new DateTime('now', 'Australia/Canberra')



Test script:
---------------
if (!in_array('Australia/Canberra', DateTimeZone::listIdentifiers())){
    echo "OH SHIT". "<br />";
}

Expected result:
----------------
expect result would be it says nothing but currently it says "OH SHIT"

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

This is correct, you're expecting that a timezone identifier that should not be used in the default list of timezones to be returned. It's still *allowed* to be used for BC reasons, and if you want them to show up wit listIdentifiers, you need to tell it that you want BC timezone identifiers as well.
