Yes, that's the correct result and it's what I observe on Ubuntu 16.04 x86-64. I 
don't offhand see how the just-installed patch would cause the wrong answer for 
the "JST-9" case, as the patch cannot make a difference unless TZ's value starts 
with "<".

Do you see the same (wrong) behavior for "JST-9" in the emacs-25 branch? In 
Emacs 24.5?
