For the record: I just fixed it in my product.  This is probably
*very* specific to my product, but maybe it gives someone hints for
the failing cmf tests.  Here is the changeset:

http://dev.plone.org/collective/changeset/39931/eXtremeManagement

I was iterating through all days of the month, doing date+1 to go to
the next day.  That is apparently not the right thing to do in a DST
context.

I now fixed this by incrementing the day count and constructing a new
DateTime object with date = DateTime(year, month, day).
