After some investigation I'm not convinced that this is a defect. When publishing an plugin the build time of the plugin is translated to UTC. In the same way the build date read from the xml-file in the update-location is translated back to local time.
Thus the build times on the update-location are all in UTC while local time is used again to check if an available plugin is newer than the locally installed plugin.
This should be the correct behavior even though it might be a bit confusing. Of course we can argue about the usefulness of this approach because it's really only important if the same revision of an plugin is published by two users in different time-zones.
