I found something weird using timezones yesterday and reported it here https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=77571

Basically the DateInterval reports a wrong interval whenever a timezone between UTC+01:00 and
UTC+12:00 is applied. I wrote a bunch of tests with all kinds of timezones here https://github.com/techouse/php-date-interval-timezone-bug

another funny behavior of diff():

```
$start = new DateTime('1922-03-26 00:00:00');
$end = new DateTime('2000-01-02 00:00:00');
echo $end->diff($start, true)->format('%Y years, %m months, %d days, %h hours, %i
minutes, %s seconds');
```

returns some minutes and seconds, although both times are exact midnight. starts to be broken on
this start date or this interval length. breaks with another start time since PHP 7.3.2RC (somewhere
in 1892)

I have submitted a PR with a test case for this bug:

That (https://3v4l.org/1b6fj) looks like a shift of the month number to me. Derick, could you have a
look at that?

Happens for March https://3v4l.org/R3LLN but not May https://3v4l.org/nblYg. DST?

Don't close this issue. PHP 7.0.6 still not getting expected results...

$date_start = '2017-03-01';
$date_end = '2017-03-31';

DateInterval Object
(
    [y] => 0
    [m] => 1
    [d] => 2
    [h] => 0
    [i] => 0
    [s] => 0
    [weekday] => 0
    [weekday_behavior] => 0
    [first_last_day_of] => 0
    [invert] => 0
    [days] => 30
    [special_type] => 0
    [special_amount] => 0
    [have_weekday_relative] => 0
    [have_special_relative] => 0
)
