Function mktime respects current time zone and calling it results in converting time back to the UTC. It means we were never returning a time for local zone but GMT one.
The easiest solution is to use tm_gmtoff from struct tm. Unfortunately this isn't part of POSIX but it seems to be the best idea anyway. Alternative (worse?) solutions: 1) Use timegm that is nonstandard GNU extension 2) Work with TZ env (getenv & (un)setenv) that is not thread-safe 3) Use timegm (next to localtime) and implement function comparing two struct tm. This is what glibc does internally (tm_diff) when compiled without HAVE_TM_GMTOFF.
