i don't think timezone changes was the question here :)

actual question would be - how does bacula actually handle these times.
i also had one job executed twice, but given that it's still 1.36, i 
didn't bother much.

so, is there some dst intelligence in latest versions of bacula ?
if not, maybe a comment, warning about this should be added to default 
configuration file schedules :)
