```
# Phoenix Islands, Kiribati
# From Paul Eggert (2021-05-27):
# Enderbury was inhabited 1860/1880s to mine guano, and 1938-03-06/1942-02-09
# for aviation (ostensibly commercial, but military uses foreseen).
# The 19th-century dates are approximate.  See Pacific/Kanton for
# the currently inhabited representative for this timezone.
Zone Pacific/Enderbury	0	-	-00	1860
			-11:24:20 -	LMT	1885
			0	-	-00	1938 Mar  6
			-12:00	-	-12	1942 Feb  9
			0	-	-00
```

So upstream decided to use UTC for durations where Enderbury was not
inhabited. So there are two solutions: Use Pacific/Kanton or we need to
start a discussion with upstream.

** Summary changed:

- tzdata 2023c-0ubuntu0.22.04.1 destroys utf-offset of Pacific/Enderbury
+ Pacific/Enderbury uses UTC+0 for dates after 1942
