It seems that the start time of Bangladesh DST is off 1 hour.
> Rule Dhaka 2009 only - Jun 19 23:00 1:00 S
> Rule Dhaka 2010 only - Jan 1 0:00 0 -

DST will actually start at 22:59.
And, newspaper below suggests that clock went back one hour at
11:59:00PM on 12-31-2009. This is actually consistent with what we
heard from a customer in Bangladesh.

So the rule would look like:
Rule Dhaka 2009 only - Jun 19 23:00 1:00 S
Rule Dhaka 2009 only - Dec 31 23:59 0 -
Rule Dhaka 2010 max - Mar 31 22:59 1:00 S
Rule Dhaka 2010 max - Oct 31 23:59 0 -
