Comment (by justdaiv):

 I believe the code patch provided only fixes the case where the local
 timezone is not in daylight savings time.  The unit test I uploaded has
 the timezone set to America/New_York (which currently is in dst) and the
 test fails.  If I change the unit test to have a timezone of
 America/Phoenix (where it is never dst), the test passes.
 Or am I missing something?
