Works fine here:

$ TZ=NZST-12:00:00NZDT-13:00:00,M10.1.0,M3.3.0 date -d @1317477599
So 2. Okt 01:59:59 NZST 2011
$ TZ=NZST-12:00:00NZDT-13:00:00,M10.1.0,M3.3.0 date -d @1317477600 
So 2. Okt 03:00:00 NZDT 2011
$ TZ=NZST-12:00:00NZDT-13:00:00,M10.1.0,M3.3.0 date -d @1331989199
So 18. Mär 01:59:59 NZDT 2012
$ TZ=NZST-12:00:00NZDT-13:00:00,M10.1.0,M3.3.0 date -d @1331989200
So 18. Mär 01:00:00 NZST 2012
