As I understand it the reason 10.4.8 offers the option for 
controlling the time/date manually is precisely for times like this 
week-end when it was decided to implement daylight saving time two 
weeks ahead of the normal practice. If the change had followed normal 
procedure of past years, your system would have switched to DST 
automatically - - - it you had checked that option.

You "done" exactly what was expected at such times, Dick. (I think)
