I updated the project in the subversion repository to use tz 2008b data,
which appears to work fine. The build passes in a flag to override the
default time zone provider, which appears to be required now. It used to
only be required for bootstrapping purposes.
Set the system property "org.joda.time.DateTimeZone.Provider" to
"org.joda.time.tz.UTCProvider". If launching Java directly, use:
java -Dorg.joda.time.DateTimeZone.Provider=org.joda.time.tz.UTCProvider ...
From groovy, call
System.setProperty('org.joda.time.DateTimeZone.Provider',
'org.joda.time.tz.UTCProvider')
