See bug 26770. Same cause. Intended behaviour.

The signature is substituted on the page. If it would listen to the *user* preference instead of the *site* settings you could end up with Talk:-pages like

Hello world. --John Doe 2010-12-30 12:30 (UTC)
: Hello there -Pete December 30, 2010 11:00 (UTC -01:30)
:: etc.

Time zone is used in the interface such as on SpecialPages ([[Special:RecentChanges]], [[Special:Log]] etc.), (diff)-views, page histories, watchlist, footer etc.
