Bug description:
import java.util.*;
DateFormat dp = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMddHHmmss z");
Date start = dp.parse("20081001175000 CET");

returns "Unparseable date" on OpenJDK 6 on Ubuntu 8.04.1 server, but works with Sub Java 6 on Gentoo.

I suspect it doesn't understand the timezone "CET" and expects a numerical ("+0100" or "+0200", depending on summer / winter time)?
