PHP Bug Type:     Date/time related
Bug description:  DateTime() doesn't get zone from ini

Description:
------------
My php.ini:

[Date]
; Defines the default timezone used by the date functions
date.timezone = "America/New_York"

When using the new DateTime() function: without explicitly setting the
actual timezone in code, no timezone is recognized.

Also, when using date_default_timezone_set(), you can't depend on
date_default_timezone_get() to get the .ini setting. It doesn't work.

Reproduce code:
---------------
date_default_timezone_set(date_default_timezone_get());

$datetime = new DateTime();
$datetime->format('G'), 0, 0);  // top of hour
echo $datetime->format(DATE_RFC3339);



Expected result:
----------------
2008-06-16T18:00:00+01:00 

Actual result:
--------------
2008-06-16T18:00:00+00:00
