when converting the TZ data into iCalendar VTIMEZONEs with vzic, the dst->std transition for 1945 doesn't get coalesced into the recurrence rule for 1946-1954. That sounds like a good-enough reason to change it. zic doesn't care, I expect. Proposed patch attached. Silly question. Since the rule IS 1945 only where is the 1946-1954 rule it is supposed to match?
