Yup. RTFCVSL :)

It is a result of fixing the date/time math across daylight savings time
boundaries. You will find that there is no longer an artifical one hour
offset in results when you add days, months, or years to a date or
timestamp.

I looked fairly carefully in the regression results before committing
the changes, but another pair of eyes always helps so let me know if you
notice anything funny...
