Subject: Timezone broken at end of the month.
It breaks for timezone less then GMT at the end of the month. For example, for the timezone PST(-8) at Feb 28 4:00 PM the timezone reported for the server goes to 16 instead of -8. The same for Jan 31 4:00 P.M., etc Perl v5.8.5

The documentation of Date::Calc warns about possible problems with these functions (see e.g. Mktime and Timezone). They are not fully supported. Use at your own risk.
