As a non-serious contribution to this discussion, I'd recommend watching the 4:12–5:40 part of "Liberating the Smalltalk lurking in C and Unix" talk[0]. Synopsis: you can *dynamically* change the timezone of an xclock instance by (1) attaching it to gdb and (2) tempering with the environment variable directly.
