How are you posting that message? When I post messages using the terminal server or using smbutil to import a message, I'm seeing the bit-encoded date values in hex (with the '0' initial nibble).

time_t values don't have a time zone, so printing '%z' there isn't really useful. It's just always going to print your system/OS time zone.

I'm confused about your time zone settings and systems, so I'm not really following.

Yes.

Doesn't sound like a coincidence.
I'm going to play with jsexec posting of messages and see if I can reproduce the time_t when_written storage like you're showing.
