I would like to first know if the missing tcemain part of the patch 
really solves the "main" issue here, before starting to fix other stuff 
that might be related. That part is attached to my post from 10h11. So 
if Dmitry and others that have had that problem in "real-life" could 
clarify that, we (even I) could then fix the "utopic-life" issues like 
the "server is located in a half-timezone" issue.

Cheers,
