State-Changed-Why: 

While your patch is very well done, the solutions to the
problems which it addresses are by no means clear. In
particular, for various reasons it may not be desirable
to run a job anyway that got skipped by DST. 

The best advice is that given in crontab(5), namely don't
schedule mission-critical jobs during that time period.
