A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
I have a method that returns dates to be included in sql queries.  Recently I upgraded from 1.4.2 to 1.5.0 and it broke this method.  The problem is that the getTime() method is returning a Date with an hour of 00, not 23.  This is not a dst issue (see the source code)
