This commit addresses an issue in libstdc++‘s timezone handling where rules triggering precisely at a zone line transition were not always correctly applied. This resulted in inconsistencies compared to the standard date library for certain zones, such as Europe/Lisbon in 1976. The fix ensures that find_active_rule considers rules firing exactly at the transition time, improving the accuracy and consistency of timezone information.
