That was my mistake ... I had not actually checked and had in mind that
MSK was a Russian rule set ... rather than a single fixed offset.

The problem with using any of the abbreviations as a timezone identifier
is exactly the same problem as happens with the 'time offset' still
incorrectly supplied via the browser. One has no idea if the client is
in a DST zone or simply a fixed offset. The time zone identifier is the
only thing that reliably identifies if DST is in use!
