It happens when using BRT timezone.

I found the same bug reported here:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2007-09/msg00176.html

This causes the script /etc/cron.daily/apt fail on line 53:
stamp=$(date --date=$(date -r $stamp --iso-8601) +%s)

In this script, $stamp assumes, among others, the values:
/var/lib/apt/periodic/update-stamp
/var/lib/apt/periodic/upgrade-stamp
/var/lib/apt/periodic/autoclean-stamp

The biggest problem is, if these files where last modified on the dates
that triggers the bug, it makes the script exit, without even touching
the files again. So, the system is never more updated periodically.
