Can the TZ be set in my.cnf (my.ini) when the MySQL server starts up?

I have read the manual on this, and tried various combinations, but haven't
hit the right syntax.

Run mysqld with --timezone=# option ...
Look at:
# mysqld_safe --timezone=EET &
mysql> select now();
+---------------------+
| now()               |
+---------------------+
| 2002-04-17 12:59:06 |
+---------------------+
1 row in set (0.01 sec)

# mysqld_safe --timezone=GMT &
mysql> select now();
+---------------------+
| now()               |
+---------------------+
| 2002-04-17 10:01:38 |
+---------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
