IanW that is not a solution for this problem.

I don't want to change my definions just because I want to see UTC in gnome-clock.

This is already a Bug Report in Gnome : http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=541145

The Gnome bug was fixed 2009-08-26, so this question/answer is obsolete now.

Can you help with this problem?
