Yeah, that's where I've got it.

Surprisingly, that _doesn't_ work. I see:
user.timezone=UTC
And then later in the TimestampUtils constructor:
TimestampUtils.TimestampUtils: System.getProperty("user.timezone") = UTC
TimestampUtils.TimestampUtils: defaultCal.getTimeZone() =
sun.util.calendar.ZoneInfo[id="Australia/Adelaide"...
defaultCal is its default GregorianCalendar that's causing the problem.
