 BTimeZone::OffsetFromGMT() returns the actual offset, not just the raw
 offset (ie. during daylight saving time, it will return the CEST value for
 Germany).

 This is then stored in the "Time settings" file, and DST is later computed
 on top of it, see http://cgit.haiku-
 os.org/haiku/tree/src/kits/locale/MutableLocaleRoster.cpp#n695
