Fake dates you produce using /etc/localtime is evil, imagine date
mismatches between stuff copied from ftp mirror and made localy in tar
archive. They even can broke 'make' process f.e. The same about CDROM

They are all fake in your case, because outside connections can assume GMT
only due to lack of timezone support in FTP protocol.
