I'm wondering when the update below will be done in the tz database.  As 
of 2010b, the rule for Pacific/Apia is still  - 

Zone Pacific/Apia        12:33:04 -     LMT     1879 Jul  5
                        -11:26:56 -     LMT     1911
                        -11:30  -       SAMT    1950            # Samoa 
Time
                        -11:00  -       WST     2009 Oct 4
                        -11:00  1:00    WSDT    2010 Mar 28
                        -11:00  -       WST
