Update timezone files for earlier Daylight Savings Time
I find this odd. You say your system is 10.4.8 but check out this doc:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303411 These are the release notes for the Mac OS X v10.4.6 update. If you check out the last section at the bottom of the page called "Other" you'll see the first item is the DST patch to comply with the Energy Policy Act of 2005. I ran your command and this was my output: foo$ zdump -v /etc/localtime | grep 2007 /etc/localtime Sun Mar 11 06:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 11 01:59:59 2007 EST isdst=0 /etc/localtime Sun Mar 11 07:00:00 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 11 03:00:00 2007 EDT isdst=1 /etc/localtime Sun Nov 4 05:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Nov 4 01:59:59 2007 EDT isdst=1 /etc/localtime Sun Nov 4 06:00:00 2007 UTC = Sun Nov 4 01:00:00 2007 EST isdst=0 So you see mine is correct and I am also running v10.4.8. I'm in the New York area: EST (GMT -5). Did Apple patch some timezones and not others? ---

I'm in Central and my 10.4.8 system shows the correct values.

I just checked all the US timezones, all OK.

It looks like the US timezone entries were updated, but not all the others were.

Hi:
Update timezone files for earlier Daylight Savings Time
I'm guessing that since observation of Daylight Saving Time is up to the discretion of each province individually in Canada, that perhaps Apple hadn't researched in time for the 10.4.6 update (released April 3, 2006) whether or not Canadian provinces were going to switch.

You are correct about the provinces getting discretion.

Well on this Mac (10.3.9) in America/Montreal, the date has not been updated. Did Apple only updated Tiger clients?
Update timezone files for earlier Daylight Savings Time
It would seem so. Other posts attached to this hint mention a 3rd-party patch available via AFP548 that should help in your situation.

I see that Apple has released a new update to the timezone files. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305056
