US/Eastern is GMT-4, not GMT+4.
DateTime has it back asswards.
I can reproduce with ruby-2.0.0 as well.

$ env PATH=/opt/apache2/ruby-1.9.3/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/ccs/bin:/opt/solarisstudio12.3/bin ruby -v
ruby 1.9.3p392 (2013-02-22 revision 39386) [x86_64-solaris2.11]
$ cat date.rb
require 'date'
require 'time'

datetime=DateTime.now.strftime("%a %b %e %T %z %Y")
puts datetime
$ env PATH=/opt/apache2/ruby-1.9.3/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/ccs/bin:/opt/solarisstudio12.3/bin TZ=US/Eastern ruby date.rb

This bug is a duplicate of bug #7868.
It was already fixed and backported to 2.0.0.
