 For locations that have daylight savings time, the gmt_offset changes over
 time. Yet get_date_from_gmt assumes the offset that is in effect now is
 always the right offset. But I might be trying to display date/times that
 are in a different timezone transition than the current one.

 Proposed fix is to use timezone_transitions_get() as wp-admin/options-
 general.php does in order to translate those date/times accurately.
