Description:
------------
gmdate("D") and date("D") give different answers for the same date, with gmdate off from the correct day of the week. This seems to be a common bug across many applications -- google "gmdate off by one" and you'll see it has popped up in Drupal, Moodle, and other programs. I am seeing the bug pop up in RS Events plugin for Wordpress. Everywhere the problem seems to be gmdate().

Reproduce code:
---------------
print gmdate("D F jS",1165717800);
print date("D F jS",1165717800);

Expected result:
----------------
Sun December 10th
Sun December 10th

Actual result:
--------------
Sat December 10th
Sun December 10th
