The irony is that the work I did for <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/75622> helped, but the one test that would have caught this issue was wrong: it was looking at the wrong date when testing the CET->CEST change. Setting #:wait-for-termination? #true would have mitigated this bug (it wouldn’t have triggered). Thanks, Ludo’.
