[TYPO3-mvc] Issues with DateTime objects and PHP 5.2.14 - always return present day

I slept 3 hours now and it got a bit better ;)

I know, but the values are there.

Of course, and it's working flawlessly on my dev-system. That's why I 
wonder. I now managed to get at least the DateTime objects from the DB 
The server seems to have some issues with the objectManager which is 
used to instantiate DateTime objects in the propertyMapper. But still 
all manual DateTime creations with a "strtotime" compatible value in the 
DateTime constructor fail :(

can't get an update as expected - so I have to dig a bit deeper. How 
great that I don't have a SSH or even a FTP access to the server - using 
Quixsplorer for debugging is a pain in the ... you know.
