This problem was identified in 2.3.1-RELEASE-p5 (amd64) as well as 2.3.2-DEVELOPMENT (amd64).

That looks like a bug that has been around for a while - it is not reversed, it is doubled.
If you have the checkbox unchecked, then it adds 1 * time zone offset (when it should make no adjustment)
If you have the checkbox checked, then it adds 2 * time zone offset.

I'm running the yesterday's development snapshot and this problem appears to have been fixed.
