You haven't stated what the problem is that you found, though.  I'm
afraid I don't see any bug in what you posted.

My guess is that you are complaining that the difference is one of 23
hours instead of the usual 24, but that's expected according to your TZ
settings, when you cross a daylight savings boundary.

If you want your calculations to be independent of daylight savings
issues, then force the time zone:

$ date +%s -d 20110313 -u
1299974400
$ date +%s -d 20110314 -u
1300060800
$ echo $(( 1300060800 - 1299974400 ))
86400

It is considered poor netiquette to send mail with such disclaimers to
publicly archived lists, where the disclaimer is unenforceable.  You may
have better luck using a personal account for sending bug report emails
if you can't avoid your employer's disclaimer.

You haven't stated what the problem is that you found, though.  I'm afraid =
I don't see any bug in what you posted.

My guess is that you are complaining that the difference is one of 23 hours=
 instead of the usual 24, but that's expected according to your TZ settings=
, when you cross a daylight savings boundary.

If you want your calculations to be independent of daylight savings issues,=
 then force the time zone:

$ date +%s -d 20110313 -u
1299974400
$ date +%s -d 20110314 -u
1300060800
$ echo $(( 1300060800 - 1299974400 ))
86400

Thank for the report.
This is addressed in FAQ
