UTC offsets don't work

[Frumph]

Setting the time-offset in setting->general still doesn't modify the time accordingly or show the difference. Have to still put in a CITY name.

(Ticket created by nacin. from wp-testers.)

I think I need some light in this issue. City names are working well and changes automatically the hour in summer/winter.

Can you explain a bit more the problem?

Cities work. The manual UTC offsets don't.

I can only reproduce this when wp_timezone_supported() returns true (ie. PHP => 5.2.0). The UTC offsets appear to work otherwise.

patch for WP 2.9.2

patch for trunk

(In [14746]) Show local time when a UTC offset is selected. Props ktdreyer. fixes #13408

I modified the patch so that the same text is always used whether an offset or city is selected.
