+Summary: System.DateTime.ToLocalTime returns UTC time
+
+Please fill in this template when reporting a bug, unless you know what you
+are doing.
+Description of Problem:
+I get the same results, whether I use ToLocalTime() or not
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Compile and run the following code:
+using System ;
+class UTCLocal
+{
+    static void Main()
+    {
+        DateTime date = DateTime.UtcNow ;
+        Console.WriteLine("Time (UTC) is  : " + date.ToLongTimeString()) ;
+        Console.WriteLine("Time (local) is: " +
+date.ToLocalTime().ToLongTimeString()) ;
+    }
+}
+
+Actual Results:
+Time (UTC) is  : 15:17:52
+Time (local) is: 15:17:52
+
+Expected Results:
+Time (UTC) is  : 15:17:52
+Time (local) is: 07:17:52
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Always
+
+Additional Information:
+$ date
+Thu Jan  9 07:27:06 PST 2003
+$ date -u
+Thu Jan  9 15:28:07 UTC 2003
+
+The hardware clock is set to local time:
+# clock --show
+Thu 09 Jan 2003 07:34:11 AM PST  -0.602683 seconds
+
+The same binary copied over and run in Windows98 works fine:
+Time (UTC) is  : 3:17:52 PM
+Time (local) is: 7:17:52 AM
+
+mono and mcs version 0.17
