Comment(by ryan):

 This shouldn't affect how the current time is computed elsewhere in WP,
 however.  If timezone_string is not set (which it isn't until someone
 explicitly sets it in the dropdown), gmt_offset is used. gmt_offset is
 what is set during install and what is used for upgraded blogs.  The
 display issue in options-general.php is just that, a display issue, as far
 as I can tell.  If your timezone_string was actually set to something
 before upgrade, then that is a different problem.
