      A problem related to using time zones in the schedule to build jobs periodically:

      GMT-10 is the same timezone as US/Hawaii. Both, at 12:00 are 00:00 at CEST Time Zone.

      If you set this in the Schedule textarea of a build configuration:

      TZ=US/Hawaii
      00 12 * * *

      The next execution is at 00:00 CEST => OK

      But, if you set this:

      TZ=Etc/GMT-10
      00 12 * * * 
      

      The next execution is at 04:00 CEST => WRONG

      It seems to be a bug when specifying time zones with GMT-XX.
