Comment (by Rarst):

 If proposed core bump to PHP 5.6 happens a lot of problems here simply
 disappear. I am of mind to wait and see if that happens, because it makes
 **major** difference to what we can use out of PHP's DateTime, including
 bunch of important additions that happened across those versions. Parsing
 numeric time zones especially in context of this ticket.
