We seem to be bitten by the following bit of glibc (?) oddity:

>>> os.environ['TZ'] = 'America/New_York'
>>> time.tzset()
>>> time.daylight, time.timezone, time.altzone, time.tzname
(1, 18000, 14400, ('EST', 'EDT'))
>>> os.environ['TZ'] = 'STD-1DST'
>>> time.tzset()
>>> time.daylight, time.timezone, time.altzone, time.tzname
(1, -3600, -7200, ('STD', 'DST'))
>>> os.environ['TZ'] = 'America/New_York'
>>> time.tzset()
>>> time.daylight, time.timezone, time.altzone, time.tzname
(1, -3600, -7200, ('STD', 'DST'))
