With the MythTV package supplied with Mageia 1,
0.24.1-20111019.0.1.mga1, it affected my recordings nearly 24
hours after the change.  Sunday evening, it erroneously started
recording at 9pm for a 10pm program.  In my case, fortunately, I
have a manual schedule covering the same time for just such a
contingency, so I watched that recording instead of the one
recorded at the same time.
