Yes, I noticed this yesterday  (saturday) morning also.  I had just
installed a new motherboard, so I thought it was me.  I can't count
the number of times I have checked the system's timezone settings. 
NTP is up and running, and I have the correct time.  My hardware clock
is set to UTC.  Yesterday the TZ was set to CST, and today it
correctly switched to CDT.

I've been battleing this since yesterday, thinking it was me, or DST.
I've done everything, including dropping my database, but nothing.  
But, after seeing my clock correctly switch, and all the posts, I'm
conviced it is Zap2it.   I'm a little bothered that we haven't seen a
peep out of the myth gurus out there.  We'll see..
