1186: Review Request descriptive timestamp doesn't match actual timestamp

What version are you running?

1.0 Release

What's the URL of the page containing the problem?

http://10.0.0.9/r/3/

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a review request.
2. Update the request with comments, reviews, etc.
3. Wait a day, then look at the timestamps for those comments and reviews.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Today is June 25th, at about 10:40am. The timestamp description I see for a
review I posted yesterday (June 24th) should say something to the effect of
"Posted 1 day, 1 hour ago", or something like that. Instead, it literally
displays:

"Posted 5 hours, 32 minutes ago (June 24th, 2009, 9:42 a.m.)"

Obviously the post is older than 5 hours.

What operating system are you using? What browser?

Server OS: Xubuntu Jaunty 32bit
Client OS: Windows XP 32bit
Browser: Firefox 3.0.11

Please provide any additional information below.

I haven't made any new requests or comments today. The only thing I have
changed is that I disabled the search function in the admin. Any other
writes to the cache or database would be audit/automation stuff from within
Review Board itself. I'm using Postgres 8.3.7 for the database, with a
file-based cache.

Did you at any point change the timezone in the admin settings? This defaults to PST,
and existing timestamps will not reflect the new timezone (this is beyond our control).
