My guess? You need to take another look at the DateTime module -- I
think the time_zone functionality is off on Win32-based systems:
http://search.cpan.org/~drolsky/DateTime-TimeZone-0.48/lib/DateTime/TimeZone.pm
Is the location of the docs for the current version. I suggest you do
some initial debugging by simply printing out the time that DateTime
object is creating, with something like "print $start_time". If that
throws the bad time, jump over to the datetime@xxxxxxxx email list,
and solicit help there. You might also try perlmonks.org (which is my
usual Perl hangout); read the "how to ask a question" docs there, and
Datetime's a well-used module that should have a solution for the
issue between the two.
That's assuming it's the problem, but I've seen similar issues
w/DateTime in the past.
