I've seen such errors when having parts of the project mounted
via nfs - and nfs time skew is not that uncommon when the server
and client disagree about what time it is or the time-protocol
does not sync them correctly in the network. It (almost) certainly
does not have to do with $TZ or something, - unix programs use
time(2)-ticks everywhere which is TZ-independent, I mean including
file timestamps and checks about them... HTH, cheers, guido
