PHP lags 23 seconds
Bug report # 35958 must have the most obscure one ever:
"strftime usually returns a string from the number of seconds since 1 jan 1970. Now, it lags and returns a string representing 23 seconds too late."
If you know what's going on though, it isn't really that weird. Every once in a while the IERS announces a new leap second to "keep the broadcast standards for time of day close to mean solar time ". At the moment the difference is 23 seconds which is reflected in comparing the leap second adjusted time zone information file with the non-adjusted one. You can see the leap second with this little shell script:
#!/bin/bash export TZ=Europe/Amsterdam date --date "@1136073621" date --date "@1136073622" date --date "@1136073623" export TZ=right/Europe/Amsterdam date --date "@1136073621" date --date "@1136073622" date --date "@1136073623"
The output is:
Sun Jan 1 01:00:21 CET 2006 Sun Jan 1 01:00:22 CET 2006 Sun Jan 1 01:00:23 CET 2006 Sun Jan 1 00:59:59 CET 2006 Sun Jan 1 00:59:60 CET 2006 Sun Jan 1 01:00:00 CET 2006
The output with the "right/Europe/Amsterdam" timezone is actually the correct time, but this will obviously confused too many computer programs. Most often you will not see this one in use.
The new date/time code in PHP 5.1 does not support the leap second either. I was playing with it while developing, but thought it to be to confusing. Seems I was right there :)
