Comment (by dustin):

 Hm, from the docs:

 email.utils.mktime_tz(tuple)

     Turn a 10-tuple as returned by parsedate_tz() into a UTC timestamp. It
 the timezone item in the tuple is None, assume local time. Minor
 deficiency: mktime_tz() interprets the first 8 elements of tuple as a
 local time and then compensates for the timezone difference. This may
 yield a slight error around changes in daylight savings time, though not
 worth worrying about for common use.

 ---

 If you change "+0000" to "+0001", what happens?  I wonder if mktime_tz is
 interpreting 0 as None?
