ok as you write the bug could be I my expectations :

as datetest.py
import time
print time.mktime((1970, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 3, 1, 0))

TZ='WET' python -u datetest.py
0.0
TZ='WEST' python -u datetest.py
0.0
TZ='Europe/London' python -u datetest.py
-3600.0
TZ='Europe/Lisbon' python -u datetest.py
-3600.0
TZ='America/Caracas' python -u datetest.py
14400.0
TZ='America/Caracas' date
Tue Mar  4 22:01:33 VET 2008
TZ='VET' python -u datetest.py
0.0
TZ='Atlantic/Cape_Verde' date
Wed Mar  5 01:33:25 CVT 2008
TZ='CVT' date
Wed Mar  5 02:34:00 CVT 2008

so setting TZ with country is different to setting TZ with 3 letters of the same
timezone ?
This is the bug or a very odd feature, this is not, a result as I expect, and
not a bug specifically in my timezone ...
