Comment:

 You're right - the fixed offset didn't make sense, and it isn't even
 necessary to store the offset at all, as clockconfig can easily just ask
 the configured timezone for its **current** offset. Should be fixed in
 hrev43793.

 However, I'm not quite sure that this cures the off-by-one-hour problem
 you've seen. Please reopen if that problem is still there.
