Comment (by mboynes):

 As I see it, this isn't a bug per se. There are some recurring tasks that
 you want to run every ''n'' seconds, and there are some tasks that you
 want to run at specific times. `wp_schedule_event` is built for the
 former, but it would be nice to be able to also accommodate the latter,
 either through a separate function or through a modification to
 `wp_schedule_event`. For recurring events that are intended to be run at
 specific times, DST isn't the only issue; timezone changes (via
 '''Settings -> General''') would also affect when a task runs.
