Description

In Preferences the current UTC time is 14:26:33Z+0000. I am in EST (US GMT-5) and when I choose that GMT -6 is reported. So it's 10:30am here and Trac reports it is 9:30am.

Well, 14 - 5 == 9 last time I checked, so Trac is doing what you're asking it to do ;-)

So this must be a DST issue, and your wall clock probably reports EDT time instead of EST. If you're not using pytz, you need to pick manually GMT-4. If you're using PyTz, then you should pick your location.

I checked with America/New_York and it reports GMT-4: 

Example: The current time is 15:16:45Z+0000 (UTC). 
In your time zone EST, this would be displayed as 11:16:45Z-0400.

(well, it should say EDT instead of EST, but the offset is what you'd expect)
