Marek (Qubes OS) identified the root cause
and updates have been released.
Thanks for the fast response time!

Affected Platforms
------------------
Qubes OS R2 and R3
   Fedora 21 Template

   and potentially others if /etc/localtime
   is not a copy but a symlink pointing to
   the actual timezone file



Fixed Versions
----------------
For R2/Fedora 21 fixed in:
qubes-⁠core-⁠vm-⁠2.1.65-⁠1


For R3/Fedora 21 fixed in:
qubes-⁠core-⁠vm-⁠3.0.12-⁠1

These packages are currently in the 'current-testing' repo only.

After updating, affected users also have to reinstall the tzdata package
to restore the overwritten timezone file:
yum reinstall tzdata
