Check your timezone variable 'TZ'.
If it reads TZ=XXXsnYYY, then change it to TZ=XXXsn.
We had this same problem happening on NUXI V.2 with TZ=MET-1MET,
occurring in /etc/inittab as:

ev::environ:TZ=MET-1MET

The latter three letters are the 'daylight time zone' and you might not want to
use it any longer as of now.

You may find the setting of TZ in /etc/TIMEZONE or /etc/tz or being referred
to in /etc/profile as in

	. /etc/TIMEZONE
