I just tried your sample and it works fine for me.   Can you try without using chan_console?  I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it but it would eliminate it as a possibility.

I made the example to keep it simple,
The problem popped out on a quite more complex dialplan scenario.
Works on asterisk 13 and fails on asterisk 16

The machines are also different (xb06-asterisk70-5 vs. x06-jenkinstest1-1). I would wager that the machine running 16 doesn't know what the {{MEZ}} timezone is.

Hmm,
i digged down a little bit further, it seems a problem with the builds on ubuntu 18, which fails and ubuntu 16 which works

It is not a timezone problem because strftime works.
I poked around a little bit in the internet and there are a few messages about the similar problem.

One mentioned he had to disable optimization to get it working again.
So i changed the default compiler to the one who is standard for ubuntu xenial (gcc 5) instead of the standard bionic one (gcc 7) .

The gcc 5 version works as expected under bonic, also with gcc-8.

So it seems a problem with gcc-7 and optimization.

There's not much we can do about that unfortunately.
