It seems to be that either way this gets solved it leaves unhappy
users and developers behind. Given the scope of the issue is wider
than just a package maintenance issue, I'm wondering if FESCO could
help getting it settled?

Would it make sense to create a FESCO ticket and let it vote on the
matter? (Work around in Fedora vs. hardcode UTC and encourage the fix
in Windows NT?)
