Robin:
OK, that's very enlightening - I didn't know this information. I
basically built ssh from the source so I will need to figure out whats
going on :)
Thanks for the reply!

Yes. Remember, recent versions of openssh use privilege separation by
default, so parts of ssh run as root. These differing times probably
means that root can read the timezone file, but the ordinary user
can't, because of a permissions problem on the file itself or one of
its parent directories.
(In my case, this was caused by me doing cd /; rpm2cpio foo.rpm | cpio
--extract -d, to fix a hosed system. But that erroneous command blew
away lots of permissions, and caused other problems, too.)
