Yes, indeed, I know THAT feeling. :-)
I think you'll find that /.profile has a TZ variable setting, which
differs from the loaded kernel, and that this causes exactly what
you're seeing. Change the settings here to the same as they appear
in /etc/default/login (which should agree with what't in the kernel)
and it should be corrected.
