[arch-general] timezones

I have
HARDWARECLOCK="UTC"
TIMEZONE="right/Portugal"
in /etc/rc.conf, but I'm not sure this is the right thing to do. I use
clockspeed to keep the clock synchronized with a ntp server, and other
sofware requires a "right/*" timezone. Anyone has any knowledge to share
about this issue?  For example, "date" gives output that ignores leap
seconds. Is this a date issue, unrelated with rc.conf? Anyone else using
a right/* timezone?

TIA
