unnerstand.  on my freebsd laptop, the only system not on gmt, when i move
timezones, the peocess is
  o run tzsetup to change timezone
  o if i have my mail user agent (vm, under emacs) running, which i
    always do, i have to exit that session and start a new one or
    it keeps the old data
  o kill and restart cron
  o the clock in my desktop panel needs to be stopped and restarted
    (clock in gnome panel)

imiho, i should not have to do those last two

note that my hardware clock is gmt
