To be clear, the standard setting of TZ does not *override* the
timezone rules built into the libraries, which are occasionally updated
to conform to various civil rulemakings.

If and when SCO issues official changes, and you install you should
*remove* the override from your /etc/TIMEZONE to avoid future problems.
