Description
erlang:localtime_to_universaltime calls mktime on the host OS and interpretes the result as an unix timestamp.
the thing is, on BSD (there for, on OS X) the mktime function returns -1 when the tm_dst is 1 and the current timezone doesn't have DST.
erlang doesn't check for this abnormal result and interpretes it wrongly as a second before unix epoch.
I attached a patch that checks for this result and tries to get the timestamp without the tm_dst.

check the result of mktime and try to get a timestamp without dst if needed
