OK, I uploaded a patch with a workaround, similar to bug 383444. Now it works:

$ zdump -v -c 2007,2101 Asia/Dhaka
Asia/Dhaka Fri Jun 19 16:59:59 2009 UTC = Fri Jun 19 22:59:59 2009 BDT isdst=0 gmtoff=21600
Asia/Dhaka Fri Jun 19 17:00:00 2009 UTC = Sat Jun 20 00:00:00 2009 BDST isdst=1 gmtoff=25200
Asia/Dhaka Thu Dec 31 16:59:59 2099 UTC = Thu Dec 31 23:59:59 2099 BDST isdst=1 gmtoff=25200
Asia/Dhaka Thu Dec 31 17:00:00 2099 UTC = Thu Dec 31 23:00:00 2099 BDT isdst=0 gmtoff=21600

I now set an arbitrary end date to January 1, 2100. I hope nobody plans appointments beyond that which have to be precise up to the hour. :-)

Fix uploaded to Karmic, preparing backports now.
