Comment (by techcookies):

 actually, when publishing directly it sets the post_date_gmt right, but if
 the post has been saved (as draft) in the mean time, post_date_gmt is left
 at '0000-00-00 00:00:00'. I think the bug is in wp-includes/post.php at
 line 1234, where it checks for empty(post_date_gmt). When post has been
 saved for the first time (i.e. as draft), post_date_gmt won't be empty,
 but will contain '0000-00-00 00:00:00'.

 So the line should read

 if (empty($post_date_gmt) || '0000-00-00 00:00:00' == $post_date_gmt) {

 I will post a patch for review.
