TZ=CST6CDT is not a standard setting.  On some hosts, it consults the
tz database and will give you "generic" Central Time rules.  On others
it will consult a hardwired internal algorithm and will likely mess up.
You'd be better off using a standard zoneinfo setting like
TZ='America/Chicago'.

This shouldn't have anything to do with coreutils; it's a C library issue.
