[php-maint] Bug#628079: php5-common: Wrong timezone selected

[Craig Small]

Package: php5-common
Version: 5.3.6-11
Severity: normal

Both the apache module and cli PHP show my timezone as
Antartica/Macquarie.  I'm not a penguin and don't live there.
The rest of the system thinks my timezone is Australia/NSW which is
correct.

I cannot find anywhere where it is set as it is commented out in the
php.ini files.  If I set the timezone in my php.ini file then everything
works correctly, but why can't php just use the system timezone like the
rest of the computer does ok?
