We had some timezone issues awhile back...  So I thought I could help
here, but now it appears you have a different problem, so all I can
offer is outside advice:

* Do you have a local environmental variable in your user account for TZ?
* Balazs may know better, but maybe you could force the function 
   "length = strftime(dest, left -1, "%z", tm);"  as opposed to      
   HAVE_GLOBAL_TIMEZONE...  in the timezone checking part of the code above?
   - You can check in your config.log if this was set... ?  On my relatively up
     to date gentoo box it was set.
