And that is exactly why it is  useful (until corrected) in determining 
if the system is observing DST or not.
like:
function checkDST   ### only on Mac OS X (didn't check os 9 though)
   convert the seconds to long time
   put it into a
   convert it to seconds
   convert it to long time
   if a = it then return false
   else return true
end checkDST
