Looks like you didn't use my piece of code to reproduce the problem:
Look like you did not output all date parts.
Why should I use your code when it's obviously wrong ?
You set the actual date with time, timezone and DST.
F.e. 2009-11-11 05:00:00+02:00
Then you set a timestamp overwriting the previous date and time but leaving
timezone and DST.
This leads to 2009-10-22 10:01:36+02:00.
Then you cut of the time from the instance but still using DST.
Reason:
You used getDate - this strips the time and returns ONLY date
2009-10-22 10:01:36+02:00 -> before
2009-10-22 00:00:00 (+02:00->trunking time internally by getDate())
2009-10-21 22:00:00 (+00:00-> trunking timezone and DST)
2009-10-21 23:00:00 (+01:00 -> trunking DST only by getDate() as a pure date
without time can not have DST, but adding timezone as it is locale
dependend, this value is set)
Your problem is that you are mixing date only calculation with date/time
calculation. By stripping parts in the middle of your calculation you get
unexpected behaviour.
Why don't you set the time to 0 (setTime() instead of getDate()) or simply
use the instance as is and output the date only
(toString(Zend_Date::DATES))?

Looks like you didn't use my piece of code to reproduce the problem:
$date = new Zend_Date(null, null, $locale);
$date->setTimestamp(1256198496);
echo $date->getDate()->toString(Zend_Date::DATES);
Using this:
$date = new Zend_Date(null, null, $locale);
$date->setTimestamp(1256198496);
echo $date->getDate()->toString();
I get
21 Oct 2009 23:00:00
which is again wrong.
If I understand well, Zend_Date is determining which timezone to use by
locale passed in constructor. But by looking in constructor docblock I
figured that it's read from PHP
/**
* Generates the standard date object, could be a unix timestamp,
localized date,
* string, integer, array and so on. Also parts of dates or time are
supported
* Always set the default timezone:
http://php.net/date_default_timezone_set
* For example, in your bootstrap:
date_default_timezone_set('America/Los_Angeles');
* For detailed instructions please look in the docu.
*
* @param string|integer|Zend_Date|array $date OPTIONAL Date value
or value of date part to set
* ,depending on $part.
If null the actual time is set
* @param string $part OPTIONAL Defines the
input format of $date
* @param string|Zend_Locale $locale OPTIONAL Locale for
parsing input
* @return Zend_Date
* @throws Zend_Date_Exception
*/
public function __construct($date = null, $part = null, $locale = null)
and in line #184 it's obvious
// set the timezone and offset for $this
$zone = @date_default_timezone_get();
$this->setTimezone($zone);
I use zf 1.9.5.

Creating the instance affects the timezone.
Using set methods affect the timezone.
The manual states multiple ways (more than 20?) to affect the timezone.
In the code you gave the locale affects the timezone.
And we still don't know how your complete date looks like.
So all we can do is prediction.
And using your code on both locales I get:
sr_RS: string '2009-10-22T10:01:36+02:00' (length=25)
en_GB:string '2009-10-22T10:01:36+02:00' (length=25)

How do I set timezone to affect Zend_Date component?
I use zend date to create view helper for date formatting.

Sorry, but date_default_timezone_set has no effect on the timezone which
is
actually used by the instance of Zend_Date nor has it effect on DST.
My question was related to the instance not your environment.
Why don't you output all dateparts from the instance instead of giving
partitial informations ?
