Hi!

What is the status of fixing date module with regard to TLA timezones 
handling - this code still fails:

<?php
$t   = new DateTime('2010-11-06 18:38:28 EDT');  // prev, zt2
$ts = $t->format('U');
var_dump($ts);
$t->setTimestamp($ts);
var_dump($t);

and also many tests are in XFAIL. Is there any chance we can get this 
fixed for 5.4?

Daniel will be publishing an RFC today, after that we have what we want 
and can have a stab at fixing it.
