Possibly, but why just those dates? AFAICT those are not DST
transition days in MET zone (correct?) so I don't see why they'd
be affected and not other days.

Can anyone else reproduce this? I don't see it happening on my
machines, either in 7.0.* or 7.1. I think there must be some
platform dependency involved.
