That probably means it's a bug in the way the date is being handled. I don't think it's treating the Z as an indicator of the time zone being UTC, it's just parsing it out as a literal to ignore. I don't expect that bug to get fixed but filing it may be a prod to make sure the bug isn't repeated when the code is converted off of joda-time to Java's classes.
