This is not true. I'm running Perl 5.004, with PilotMgr 1.106, and have 
the same problem.

Personally, this error is very annoying; as I'd rather have a 
slightly-off schedule in my Pilot than lose the ability to Sync my 
schedule altogether. Now I'm at the mercy of convincing someone in 
IT/ENS to change the time zone description on my machine. They are 
either not buying the reason for my request, or will get around to it 
"eventually". I don't have the time to be haggling with them about 
this. At the moment, since I can't sync: I'm screwed.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
