I changed the code for another test and forgot to revert the change when I copied it into the mail. So it seems like there is a bug. But what makes me wonder is that HHVM prints out the same result. That's why I wanted to ask this mailing list as I assume that I am missing something :-/ Does anyone have an idea? What time zone are you using? The difference may be related to daylight savings/summer time as that changed in that specific period.
