--- Comment #1 from Oleksandr Tymoshenko <gonzo at FreeBSD.org> ---
tzsetup operates on the list of zones from tzdata, 3rd-party library/dataset,
FreeBSD uses it as-is, without modifications. Apparently at some point DST
rules in Busingen and DD/DE were different which by tzdata rules warrants
creating dedicated record for it:

# From Tobias Conradi (2011-09-12):
# Büsingen <http://www.buesingen.de>, surrounded by the Swiss canton
# Schaffhausen, did not start observing DST in 1980 as the rest of DE
# (West Germany at that time) and DD (East Germany at that time) did.
# DD merged into DE, the area is currently covered by code DE in ISO 3166-1,
# which in turn is covered by the zone Europe/Berlin.
