This is a known bug in the 8.0 driver and seems different than your
original complaint. Being off by an hour (the difference between the two
timezones) is the expected (and incorrect) behavior that I expected to
see. Your original complaint was off by 20:40 which is an unusual number,
are you still seeing that?
