Hi Curt, I think that it's a fairly recent commit that broke this: I'm using the --start-date-gmt option quite frequently, and it wasn't until earlier this week that I noticed an inconsistency (although I hadn't conciously noted any time shift yet, I did notice that startup patterns for traffic were fairly inconsistent). On a more general note, I have reason to believe that this is a more general time issue: I just found out that --timeofday also gives the wrong result: I just tried running --timeofday=dawn, and that put me at approx: 2011-10-29T:17:30 for Amsterdam (EHAM). Given that we're currently 2 hours behind UTC, this is not dawn, but already after sunset.
