A very similar bug was fixed in the Clock applet a while back http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=519823 -- basically, the code would guess your location based on latitude and longitude, and map to a fairly random location from its database.

I'm guessing a similar fix should be applied for the time-admin component (and/or down the line, this sort of logic should be centralized into a single module or library).
