We recently recognized that there are inconsistencies with dates in the DBpedia 
Sparql endpoint:
dates in the SPARQL endpoint are timezoned +02:00 while on the DBpedia pages 
and in the dumps they are not. Take for example the birth date of Adriana 
Ozores, which is 
dbpedia-owl:birthDate 1959-05-21 (xsd:date) on [1] and 
<http://dbpedia.org/ontology/birthDate> 1959-05-20+02:00 in the Sparql endpoint 
[2].

That is most probably an issue of Virtuoso and there already was an issue 
raised in 2011 on the virtuoso-users mailing list [3].

Anybody knows a workaround and possibly a way to prevent this in future?
