Description:
------------
There seems to be a bug in date_sunrise and date_sunset when the GMT offset is greater than the sunrise or sunset time.

For instance, if the date_sunset function returns '00:14' as the sunset time in GMT, trying to use the GMT offset of -4 would result in '-3:-4' being returned.

In sunfuncs.c there is a line:

ret = php_sunrise_sunset(N, latitude, longitude, zenith, calc_sunset) + gmt_offset;

It seems that it should check if gmt_offset is greater than the returned value from php_sunrise_sunset and if so, add 24 to the returned value before the addition of gmt_offset.


Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
echo date("D M d Y"). ', sunset time : ' .date_sunset(time(), SUNFUNCS_RET_STRING, 40, -83, 90, -4);
?>


Expected result:
----------------
I would expect to see:

Sun Apr 24 2005, sunset time : 20:14


Actual result:
--------------
I actually see:

Sun Apr 24 2005, sunset time : -3:-4

Sorry...

"There seems to be a bug in date_sunrise and date_sunset when the GMT offset is greater than the sunrise or sunset time."

should have read:

"There seems to be a bug in date_sunrise and date_sunset when the GMT offset is negative and the absolute value is greater than the sunrise or sunset time."

You should only need to do:

ret = php_sunrise_sunset(N, latitude, longitude, zenith, calc_sunset) + (gmt_offset + 24) % 24;

That should do it (no if's :D)... I can't checkout the source and patch it ATM.
