[tz] More than 2 transitions per year for Asia/Gaza & Hebron in 2068+

[Dave Rolsky]

Hi all,

With the latest release (2023d) I'm seeing some surprising output from
zdump for the Asia/Gaza & Asia/Hebron zones:

$> zdump -v Asia/Hebron
...
Asia/Hebron  Fri Mar 23 23:59:59 2068 UT = Sat Mar 24 01:59:59 2068 EET
isdst=0 gmtoff=7200
Asia/Hebron  Sat Mar 24 00:00:00 2068 UT = Sat Mar 24 03:00:00 2068 EEST
isdst=1 gmtoff=10800
Asia/Hebron  Fri Oct 19 22:59:59 2068 UT = Sat Oct 20 01:59:59 2068 EEST
isdst=1 gmtoff=10800
Asia/Hebron  Fri Oct 19 23:00:00 2068 UT = Sat Oct 20 01:00:00 2068 EET
isdst=0 gmtoff=7200
Asia/Hebron  Fri Mar 29 23:59:59 2069 UT = Sat Mar 30 01:59:59 2069 EET
isdst=0 gmtoff=7200
Asia/Hebron  Sat Mar 30 00:00:00 2069 UT = Sat Mar 30 03:00:00 2069 EEST
isdst=1 gmtoff=10800
Asia/Hebron  Fri Oct 11 22:59:59 2069 UT = Sat Oct 12 01:59:59 2069 EEST
isdst=1 gmtoff=10800
Asia/Hebron  Fri Oct 11 23:00:00 2069 UT = Sat Oct 12 01:00:00 2069 EET
isdst=0 gmtoff=7200


This pattern of >2 transitions per year continues from that year.

Is this correct? It seems awfully weird.


Cheers,
