After some digging I figured out it was related to timezones and only affected timezones ranging from Europe/London eastward all the way to Pacific/Auckland, however as soon as I used Pacific/Honolulu the issue was gone. Test findings All the tests in tests/Timezones/America and tests/Timezones/Atlantic pass. Another weird thing is that Europe/London passes all tests where it does not adhere to daylight savings time (UTC+01:00). From this I draw a conclusion that all timezones that are greater than UTC+00:00 fail because of this additional time. All the tests and findings can be found in my GitHub repo https://github.com/techouse/php-date-interval-timezone-bug Test script: --------------- https://github.com/techouse/php-date-interval-timezone-bug Expected result: ---------------- A correct DateInterval. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=77571&edit=1
