I didn't say a US timezone, I said US Dates for when daylight saving
time starts/stops.
There's no international concensus on when daylight saving time
starts/stops; it's a country-by-country decision, and in fact a few
years ago inside the US was a state-by-state decision.
(It still is a state-by-state decision whether to have
daylight-saving-time or not, but not when it starts and stops.)
The software may have been enforcing standard time on a part of the
world that had already started daylight saving time.
