This doesn't have relation with time zones or daylight savings, it is a constant number of seconds, but not entire hours. May be it is related to the Mac OS version? I'm using MacOS 10.5.8.

Well I think I know what the issue is, Juan can you tell me what timezone and city you have set 
in the "Date & Time"  TimeZone tab in system settings?
