I found the line (#280) in the source that contains the problem:

Rule   Egypt   2009    only    -        Sep     lastThu  23:00s     0
-

This should be changed to:

Rule    Egypt   2009    only    -       Aug     20              23:00s  0       
-
Rule       Egypt   2010     max   -            Sep        lastThu       23:00s  
0       -

The above two lines reflect the actual end of daylight savings this year
and the probable end next year. Egypt changed the end of DST this year
to happen just before the beginning of the Islamic Hijri month of
Ramadan, which this year began on Saturday 22 August, the time shift
occurred at midnight on Thursday 20/Friday 21 August and changed the
clock back one hour to 23:00 Thursday 20 August. Next year the
government will likely revert to their standard shift date which is at
the end of September.
