I think you are right that it is something to do with daylight savings time.
When I sent my original message I was on GMT (same as UTC, no?). So +01:00
would have been incorrect. The UK switched to summer time on 28 March, so
+01:00 should now be right. I have just redone the same test and got no error
messages at all. All the files from both 0.12.3 and 0.12.6 have +01:00
suffixes.

Yes. The two error_log files from the original test are
error_log.2004-03-06T13:26:34+01:00.data.gz
error_log.2004-03-06T13:28:37+01:00.data.gz
However, the current_mirror file (created by 0.12.6) is
current_mirror.2004-03-06T13:28:37Z.data
and all of the other data and stats files for 13:28:37 have Z as well.
