Bug description:Relative dates and getTimestamp increments by one day

Description:
------------
If you create a DateTime object using a relative date string of "this week
+6 days", when calling getTimestamp on the datetime object, the date is
mysteriously increments by one day. However, if you seperately modify the
datetime using 'this week', then '+6 days', it works correctly.



Where is the additional day comeing from, and why is it only applied when
calling format('U') DOESNT increment the datetime by 1 day. Wierd!



Here is a work around:



$endOfWeek = new DateTime();

$endOfWeek->modify('this week');

$endOfWeek->modify('+6 days');



echo $endOfWeek->format('Y-m-d H:m:s')."\n";

echo $endOfWeek->format('U')."\n";



/* Thar she blows! */

echo $endOfWeek->getTimestamp()."\n";



echo $endOfWeek->format('Y-m-d H:m:s')."\n";

Test script:
---------------
$endOfWeek = new DateTime();

$endOfWeek->modify('this week +6 days');



echo $endOfWeek->format('Y-m-d H:m:s')."\n";

echo $endOfWeek->format('U')."\n";



/* Thar she blows! */

echo $endOfWeek->getTimestamp()."\n";



echo $endOfWeek->format('Y-m-d H:m:s')."\n";



Expected result:
----------------
DateTime should stay the same after a call to getTimestamp (surely
getTimestamp should be safe from side effects)
