[plug] nasty 'at' bug in ubuntu?

[William Kenworthy]

Gentoo:

rattus ~ # at 10pm thu 
warning: commands will be executed using /bin/sh
at> blah
at> <EOT>
job 1 at 2009-01-01 22:00
rattus ~ # atq
1	2009-01-01 22:00 a root
rattus ~ #


Looks ok on gentoo.

Is the timezone set? - looks like there is an hour discrepancy (DST) as
well.
