And main httpd.conf doesn't do any includes to add some extra conf
parts..? (just to be sure here..you could try the latest snapshot JIC,
some fixes were committed just last week)

Nope, nothing like that in the main httpd.conf and no .htaccess files
involved at all.

If you're using Apache, please check that there is no
php_value/php_admin_value settings used in any vhost/directory
(.htaccess/httpd.conf) to set the timezone.

As you can see from the sample code above, I haven't set date.timezone.
If I do set it, the erratic behavior stops.
However, it is a bug that without setting the timezone explicitly, the
behavior is erratic and unpredictable. It should default to either UTC
or the system timezone, but it definitely should not alternate randomly
between the two.

How/where do you set date.timezone ?

Description:
------------
When using localtime() to get the server time into an array, sometimes
PHP chooses the local timezone, sometimes it chooses GMT. I am in
US/Eastern (-0500), so after 7pm, sometimes my script says it's today,
sometimes tomorrow (because it is choosing GMT).
Below is some code, plus a result from when it chooses the local
timezone (correct) and one where it chooses GMT (incorrect).
If I run date at the command-line, it consistently returns a US/Eastern
time, so the server is not skipping back and forth between timezones for
any reason.
Reproduce code:
---------------
print time() . ": ";
$serverTime = localtime(time());
print_r($serverTime);
print date("O");
Expected result:
----------------
1205022657: Array ( [0] => 57 [1] => 30 [2] => 19 [3] => 8 [4] => 2 [5]
=> 108 [6] => 6 [7] => 67 [8] => 0 ) -0500
Actual result:
--------------
1205022665: Array ( [0] => 5 [1] => 31 [2] => 0 [3] => 9 [4] => 2 [5]
=> 108 [6] => 0 [7] => 68 [8] => 0 ) +0000
