It looks like you have just discovered the joys of daylight saving time.  The 
problem with your example is that datetime(2003,4,6,2,58,17) is not a valid 
time in your timezone (most likely you are in the US).  In the US, prior to 
2007, the clocks moved 1 hour ahead at 2AM on the first Sunday in April. An 
thus 1:59 AM was followed by 3:00 AM and 2:58:17 never occurred.

See the following link for detailed discussion of these issues:
