OK, I think this is a different issue. With older versions of the client, 
the file timestamps would sometimes be saved incorrectly if your timezone 
was not GMT, due to failure to initialise a structure used for timezone 
conversion on Windows. This should have been fixed in r460.

This is a very good idea. Please add it to the Feature Requests page?
