           Summary: [gstdatetime] GMT offset fails with GDateTime backend
    Classification: Desktop
           Product: GStreamer

When using GDateTime from glib on macosx, gstdatetime fails to handle properly
the gmt offset:

Running suite(s): GstDateTime
72%: Checks: 11, Failures: 3, Errors: 0
gst/gstdatetime.c:278:F:general:test_GstDateTime_get_utc_offset:0: 'ts' (0) is
not equal to 'tm.tm_gmtoff / 3600.0' (1)
gst/gstdatetime.c:75:F:general:test_GstDateTime_new_from_unix_epoch_local_time:0:
'gst_date_time_get_hour (dt)' (15) is not equal to 'tm.tm_hour' (16)
gst/gstdatetime.c:50:F:general:test_GstDateTime_now:0: 'gst_date_time_get_hour
(dt)' (15) is not equal to 'tm.tm_hour' (16)
FAIL: gst/gstdatetime

Looking at the glib docs doesn't show any fixes. I propose to disable the
GDateTime backend for GstDateTime for this coming release and make it use our
internal version.
