I did discover this after asking my question, and it's an okay solution, 
but it has the side effect of changing timezones *everywhere* in Mutt, 
not just in the date header. So, for example, showing mail arrival times 
in my local timezone no longer works.

I sent a patch [1] to add a new 'local_date_header' option (enabled by 
default) that should enable this behavior, for anyone else who may be 
interested.

Thanks,

Greg
