Hi
I had a similar error and check the src in intervel.c timelib_diff the date is changed to 
local or gmt

from
13-03-01
13-04-01

to
13-02-28
13-03-31

rt->d = two->d - one->d;

and makes it 1 month and 3 days 
could it be solved by only running timelib_apply_localtime if date zones are
different or else can put some other conditions to to prevent this, any other 
way to solve this, bug is for php 5.4 but exists in newer versions too.

Thanks
