On my server, php apps are reporting the timezone is switching back and

becoming a problem for one poorly written app that stores dates as a
unix timestamp as depending on the refresh of the page shows appoints an
hour off of the expected time.
As I said it's not just a php problem. The access logs all show this
weirdness. Has anyone seen this before? I found one other person on
google who has reported this problem, but no one replied at all to his
queries. Likely I won't either, owing to the rarity of this problem!
Have you restarted Apache lately? (Full restart, not graceful or HUP.)
If it's been running since before the daylight saving time switch, it's
possible some children are still in the old UTC offset, while new ones are
in the new offset. Seems like I've run into that before.
