Well, it seems to be all of the bundle tests failing, because the sha1
sum is not matching.

Digging deeper, it seems this might be the root cause:

Specifically, this is testing that we are able to take a date that looks
like this:
Thu 2005-06-30 12:38:52.350850105 -0500

And turn it into a timestamp + timezone that looks like this:
(1120153132.3508501, -18000)

The important one is that 'unpack_highres_date(format_highres_date())'
should be capable of converting into a date string, and then converting
back to the original value.

I don't know why it is failing on your machine. It seems like maybe
local_time_offset() is returning something weird.

Can you just do:

python
>>> import bzrlib.osutils
>>> print bzrlib.osutils.local_time_offset()

Thanks,
John
