Description:
------------
date_default_timezone_set() does not affect any HTTP-header?
For example created with setcookie(), the setting has no effect.

Why is PHP given "It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings" on date() but not on setcookie()?

So if the method is used to correct the timezone (eg. GMT to GMT+1) no header generated by PHP will regarding the changed time. Any cookie set to 1 hour expiration will fail.

If this is bogus, please add a warning to setcookie() linking with date_default_timezone_set().

cookies are based on GMT and don't use a timezone.
