What TZ do you use to get right time w/ clockspeed?

It looks to me like when I set up clockspeed according to the
instructions, syncing off one of the main ntp tickers with
sntpclock|clockadd, then starting up clockspeed, then giving it a
tweak with sntpclock>adjust, date(1) is reporting a time 22 seconds
faster than date(1) does on another machine that's as far as I know
healthy, and on which ntpdate -q reports a tiny fraction of a second
discrepancy from the same primary ntp ticker I synced to with
sntpdate.

In other words, I'm guessing I'm a victim of what clockview(1)
mentions "Beware that many systems do not handle leap seconds
correctly in localtime."

This is on a Red Hat 7.2 system.

Is there some system config I could tweak --- please oh please let
it be something configurable through the TZ mechanism --- that would
fix this system-wide?
