I don't think you can specify a path in the TZ environment variable:

$ TZ=PST8 ./jsc ~/date.js 
Sun Mar 11 2012 23:59:59 GMT-0800 (PST)
11 March, 2012 11:59:59 PM GMT-08:00

$ TZ=PST8PDT ./jsc ~/date.js 
Mon Mar 12 2012 00:59:59 GMT-0700 (PDT)
12 March, 2012 12:59:59 AM PDT
12 March, 2012
11 March, 2012
$ TZ=America/Los_Angeles ./jsc ~/date.js 
Mon Mar 12 2012 00:59:59 GMT-0700 (PDT)
12 March, 2012 12:59:59 AM PDT
12 March, 2012
11 March, 2012
$ TZ=/usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Los_Angeles ./jsc ~/date.js 
Mon Mar 12 2012 00:59:59 GMT-0700 (PDT)
