Hi,
Do you use version 4 or 3?
I am using version 4.0.14.
I thought that I need to use "set-variable = timezone = CST" for it to work under MySQL 3.
MySQL docs: "...set-variable = variable=value This is equivalent to --set-variable variable=value on the command-line. Please note that --set-variable is deprecated since MySQL 4.0; as of that version, program variable names can be used as option names. On the command line, just use --variable=value. In an option file, use variable=value..."

IMHO the problem is that you have put timezone variable into [mysqld] section, but you need to put it into [mysqld_safe] section. But I am not sure. Check it, please.
That's correct. --timezone is a mysqld_safe option, not a mysqld option.
Best regards, Mikhail.
