I have had an alarm set at 6:10 am for the past year and 2 days ago my phone started going off at 5:10 am. I thought my phone was just being screwy but I guess I am being affected by something since this is what is happening. Should note that I live in Las Vegas, NV not Europe or overseas anywhere buy right here in the U.S.

Yea no problem for me .. I don't use the alarm of iPhone .. I'm Mexican .. I have sticky balls ..
-
Same here but I'm in Toronto Canada
-
Also... I erased that alarm this morning and set a new one for a couple minutes later and it went off at the correct time.

Getting information on a lot of US users. I think it depends on how device was jail broken.
From information i am getting devices in US that are not jail broken do not seem to be affected.

Thanks for the heads up, iphonehackx. I develop iPhone apps and let me tell you, the timezone support available in obj-c is awfully complex. Apparently, Apple themselves has fallen victim to their own confusing libraries!

I live in london and set a alarm 5 minutes after the current time and It went off at the right time no problem for me, maybe it's just some iPhone affected?
-
No problems here either! We turned our clocks last Saturday night here in Sweden, and my 3 GS with iOS 4.1 both switched the time correctly, and woke me up at the time I had set the alarm.
-
Damn I'm 1 hour late
-
I fixed it by editing the alarm, putting it an hour forward then saving it. Then edit again, put the alarm an hour back (to where it was originally), save it again of course. That's it. It works again.

There is a jailbreak app from hitoriblog source that enables your iPhone to sync with a time server frequently. Thanks to it I never experienced any daylight saving time problems.

Kyiv, Ukraine - no signs of a bug. I gave a good clock, and as far as if now, both it and the iPhone work correctly to the time schedule, so there's no problem for me.

Hate typos >:(

I've found that setting the alarm to recur on week days only fixes the problem. mountain time US
-
I live in Alaska, it just started saturday going off an hour early. Really messes with ya, but i'd rather it go off an hour early than an hour late.
-
I'm on 4.0.1 and I set my alarm for 6:00 AM but alarm went off at 7:00 AM. An hour late for work.
-
Russia, Moscow. Late for work for an hour today. Really stupid!
-
Always works!!! yeah right, they cannot even get the alarm app to work properly.
-
This is crazy that Apple has not tuned the software that well?
-
I live in NC and this bug affected me on Monday morning. Both of my alarms when off an hour early! It did that for 2 days until I deleted the alarms completely and created new ones. I wonder why I was affected a week before Daylight savings time reaches the US?!
