[h-e-w] Cannot set start of daylight savings time |

Hello,
Emacs manual states that to change the start or end of daylight savings time
from the default value (Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA), one has to change
the values of calendar-daylight-savings-starts and
calendar-daylight-savings-ends. However, all my attempts to do so are
failing. I am using the call of emacs (version 24.2.1), "runemacs
--no-splash --no-site-file", and the following simple init.el file:
START OF FILE
(load "cal-dst")
(setq calendar-daylight-savings-starts '(calendar-nth-named-day -1 0 3
year))
;(setq calendar-daylight-savings-starts nil)
(setq calendar-daylight-savings-ends '(calendar-nth-named-day -1 0 10 year))
;(setq calendar-daylight-savings-ends nil)
(setq calendar-daylight-time-offset 60)
(setq calendar-daylight-savings-starts-time 180)
(setq calendar-daylight-savings-ends-time 180)
END OF FILE
after which I evaluated the form
(format-time-string "%H:%M ")
None of the two values seen above (one of which is commented out) result in
any change (I always get the Cambridge, Massachusetts version). Can someone,
please, tell me what I am doing wrong?
Regards,
bostjanv
