So the question is what means properly installed. I know I can set 'Local Time
Zone' in NSGlobalDefaults or even set up a file somewhere deep in the
gnustep-base library's resources (which I'd like to refrain from doing, since
that file has to be recreated whenever -base is updated to a new version), but
I'd prefer not having to perform such additional post installation steps.

While that is true, I doesn't apply to the systems in question. NSTimeZone
uses the information provided by tzset. In particular, this is
  tzname[0] = "GMT"
  tzname[1] = "BST"
  timezone = 0
  daylight = 1
