I get the correct results using your TZ environment variable.
Actually, when I first tested with musl I didn't have a TZ environment
variable and the time was off by 4 hours. Setting it seemed to fix the
issue at first.
My linux machine has the timezone was set by the redhat/centos
system-config-date to New York (I changed it to Detroit since then) and
the "system uses UTC is not checked". This is a binary file but it ends
in EST5EDT,M3.2.0,M11.1.0.
Should musl be using /etc/localtime if TZ is not defined?
