Also, check this bug report.  It relates directly to /etc/localtime not 
updated
when tzdata package is updated, which is most likely exactly the problem that
you have.  It seems Red Hat closed the issue with wontfix.  Mental note,
manually update /etc/localtime after tzdata package is updated.

I also want to take opportunity to apologize for that personal and totally off
topic comment at the end of my last reply that flared way too many responses.
