Obviously a bug in the C library or a misconfiguration from your system.
Following the ISO and POSIX standards
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695299/functions/localtime.html

"The localtime() function shall convert the time in seconds since the Epoch
pointed to by timer into a broken-down time, expressed as a local time. The
function corrects for the timezone and any seasonal time adjustments. [CX]
  Local timezone information is used as though localtime() calls tzset()."
