Test script:
---------------
$date_time = new DateTime('2016-08-01', new DateTimeZone('Africa/Cairo'));

It is returning "2016-08-01 +02:00, 0" and shoould returns "2016-08-01 +02:00, 1"
I have timezonedb 2016.4 installed already.

The PHP timezone DB is build from IANA's time zone database[1].
timezonedb-2016-4 already bundles the latest time zone database,
so the issue should be reported to IANA (if not already happened).
