Hi,

Is the first entry in the return value of 
http://php.net/manual/en/datetimezone.gettransitions.php with the 
timestamp `PHP_INT_MIN` / ZEND_LONG_MIN intended?

The difference with no arguments is over 100 times slower on 64 bit systems:

DateTimeZone::getTransitions()
Duration: 0.075577

DateTimeZone::getTransitions(-62135596800)
Duration: 0.000587
