Maybe you're in a parallel universe?
from tzsetup manpage:
BUGS
Programs which are already running when tzsetup creates or updates
/etc/localtime will not reflect the updated timezone. When the system is
first configured for a non-UTC hardware clock, it is necessary to run
adjkerntz(8) (which normally happens as a part of system startup) in
order to update the kernel's idea of the correct timezone offset.
Maybe you just need a friendly reboot or kill -HUP?
