I guess daylight saving is a whole hour, not just 1/2 hour?

That's just a flag, indicating if the time is adjusted with DST or not.

Well, not much. Since we have here DST too (ok, not right now, but
during summer) and I never had that problem, I don't think it has
something to do with DST but maybe with your timezone being
GMT+Something+1/2?

I have to do some more tests about that, but that will have to wait
until the weekend...
