[tz] Confusing zdump output for America/Ojinaga

I'm a bit confused regarding the output from zdump for the new
America/Ojinaga zone. Here's the output for 2022:

America/Ojinaga  Sun Mar 13 08:59:59 2022 UT = Sun Mar 13 01:59:59 2022 MST
isdst=0 gmtoff=-25200
America/Ojinaga  Sun Mar 13 09:00:00 2022 UT = Sun Mar 13 03:00:00 2022 MDT
isdst=1 gmtoff=-21600
America/Ojinaga  Sun Oct 30 07:59:59 2022 UT = Sun Oct 30 01:59:59 2022 MDT
isdst=1 gmtoff=-21600
America/Ojinaga  Sun Oct 30 08:00:00 2022 UT = Sun Oct 30 03:00:00 2022 CDT
isdst=1 gmtoff=-18000
America/Ojinaga  Sun Nov  6 06:59:59 2022 UT = Sun Nov  6 01:59:59 2022 CDT
isdst=1 gmtoff=-18000
America/Ojinaga  Sun Nov  6 07:00:00 2022 UT = Sun Nov  6 01:00:00 2022 CST
isdst=0 gmtoff=-21600

Note that there's no November 30 event. But based on the zone's definition
I'd expect to see these events:

Oct 30 - change to _CST_
Nov 30 - No change, I guess, since the change to the US rules on Nov 30
doesn't actually change the offset or isdst flag.

But maybe I'm misunderstanding how to interpret the zone file definition?


Cheers,
