I think how the program handles the timezone may well depend on how
the libs of the programming language (C? GFA?) handle it.

Well, actually it was the setting of an environment variable:

  GTZ=GMT0BST1,M3.5.0/01:00,M10.5.0/02:00

I'm not sure if this will work for Atari NOS, perhaps it's a modification
for the PC version of NOS.
