All time recorded in Hobbit uses either the Unix timestamp - which is
unaffected by DST changes - or the local time of some event which has
occurred (for history logging).

So I cannot see that there should be any problems, assuming your OS has
been updated to handle the new DST changes (usually, an update to your
timezone definition files).
