Answer 1

Finally got the solution:

The point is, NSDate objects don't have a time zone associated with them, and a few releases back someone in Apple decided that NSDate's -description method, which is what NSLog uses, should use GMT+0 and NOT the local time zone for output. (I assume someone had a bug where they corrupted their locale setting, and that caused NSDate's -description method to crash, and so bug reports got filed...)

The short version: Use NSDateFormatter to output dates. Don't use -description.
