[darcs-devel] darcs patch: Account for timezone offset in cleanDate... (and 1 more)

Two unrelated timezone fixes.

I don't really expect the local timezone one to be controversial, but it does
  1. make a change in how the user interface behaves
     before, if you type in something like 2006-06-10 21:44, you would
     get 21:44 UTC... now you would get it in your local time, which would
     seem more intuitive.
  2. use unsafePerformIO to grab the local timezone
So there may be some discussing to do

  * Account for timezone offset in cleanDate  (Fixes issue173).

  * Assume local timezone, not UTC, when parsing iso8601 dates.
  
  UTC or any other timezone, can still be specified with an offset, for
  example, 14:00Z for UTC, or 14:00+02 for 2 hours after UTC.
