Bug description:  mktime strange result or leak of documentation

Description:
------------
According to documentation, setting is_dst to -1 can cause unexpected (but
not incorrect) results.
The result below demostrates the behavior of mktime or the documentation
is wrong.

Anyway it's better to explain why the is_dst paramater is deprecated since
php 5.1.0.

I check gmmktime, and the result is the same!

Reproduce code:
---------------
echo (mktime(2,0,0,3,31,1996,1)),"<br>";
echo (mktime(3,0,0,3,31,1996,1)),"<br><br>";
  
echo (mktime(2,0,0,3,31,1996,0)),"<br>";
echo (mktime(3,0,0,3,31,1996,0)),"<br><br>";
  
echo (mktime(2,0,0,3,31,1996,-1)),"<br>";
echo (mktime(3,0,0,3,31,1996,-1)),"<br><br>";

echo (gmmktime (2,0,0,3,31,1996)),"<br>";
echo (gmmktime (3,0,0,3,31,1996)),"<br>";

Expected result:
----------------
4 blocks with 2 numbers.
In each block, the pair of numbers must be different!

Actual result:
--------------
828230400
828234000

828234000
828237600

828234000
828234000

828241200
