last cvs version of initscripts in %post of initscripts.spec:

# dup of timeconfig %post - here to avoid a dependency
if [ -L /etc/localtime ]; then
    _FNAME=`ls -ld /etc/localtime | awk '{ print $11}' | sed 's/lib/share/'`
    rm /etc/localtime
    cp -f $_FNAME /etc/localtime
    if ! grep -q "^ZONE=" /etc/sysconfig/clock ; then
      echo "ZONE=\"$_FNAME"\" | sed -e "s|[^\"]*/usr/share/zoneinfo/||" >> 
/etc/sysconfig/clock
    fi
fi

i beleive you'll get your information in /etc/sysconfig/clock
