By ancient tradition, method timestamps are recorded in local time.

So Christoph is right technically, Eliot's commit happened after his
commit (see the mail archives to confirm). And Marcel is right that
it doesn't really matter.

It would be nice to at least include the GMT offset in the method
stamps, or even (gasp!) use a proper international format. But if
I recall correctly there are various hidden dependencies on the
format of the method stamps. I think I recall looking at this a
long time ago and concluding that it would be dangerous to change,
but maybe it's worth another look.
