Akua Sweets geographic location/time zone corrupts the setting!?

The Akua setting of the geographic location/time zone does not work at all for me - not even locally! On my computers (OS 9, OS 8.1, OS 7.6), the following (using Akua Sweets osax) completely destroys the geographic location and time zone setting:

set geo to adjust the clock --geo will contain a record of location
adjust the clock at geoposition geo --destroys time zone settings

On first call, 'geo' contains:
{latitude:7.07874179E+8, longitude:215344742,
daylight savings:false, GMT delta:3600}

On second run, 'geo' contains:
{latitude:1.834484004E+9, longitude:-1.102053108E+9,
daylight savings:false, GMT delta:6031936}

And when I manually set the time zone back to "Stockholm" then, of course, the date and time flies all way, (which then happens to trigger several scheduled tasks on my computer generally screwing up just about everything....)

Does anybody know what's wrong?
