Follow-up Comment #12:

As I pointed out, abbreviations are not really valid timezone names ... and
SAMT is both an abbreviation for Europe/Samara (UTC+4) and for Pacific/Samoa
(UTC-11).

So in this case it's impossible to work around the bad system timezone
setting by accepting an abbreviation, and you need to either correct the
timezone name set for your system, or override it.

I've updated the error/help output again ... hopefully it's now
clear/informative enough to let people know exactly what then need to do.
