FYI, it should link to its parent:
/gnu/store/097dmm40lhcf777acqh5i660j4i09k85-tzdata-2022a/share/zoneinfo
(So, yes, you could …/posix/posix/posix/posix/… all night long.)

You could try
# guix gc --verify=contents,repair
and Guix should detect the mismatch and refresh tzdata from a
substitute server.
The unsupported alternative would be to bind-mount /gnu/store
somewhere and manually relink the file.

Kind regards,
