Replying to myself... I first tried installing the DateTime.py from 2.3.1 
into my 2.2.2 installation, but that did not help (I had already verified 
that DateTimeZone.py had not changed between the two versions). Then I 
tried reading DateTimeZone.py but that made my head hurt. So I read 
DateTime.py instead. There I found that CDT, which is what my Linux says 
when you ask it for the time, is defined as GMT+2. I don't know what 
eastern European time zone that is supposed to be, but I reclaimed it for 
my own by changing the source to GMT-5 (reluctantly, since I have no clue 
about the part that DateTimeZone.py plays in this).

So that's where it's going to stay until I get motivated to do it right or 
somebody explains it/beats me to it.
