By the same rule, the "correct" transliteration of Europe/Zurich would 
be Europe/Zuerich, wouldn't it?  But we're using English zone names 
rather than transliterated zone names and I think either "Buesingen" or 
"Busingen" would do for the English name.  I've seen both used in a 
quick Google search, and the English Wikipedia redirects both spellings 
to "Büsingen".
