When scheduling state transitions, the timezone our website has been configured to use (Europe/Brussels, which is GMT +0100) is not honored. The date we enter is handled as a time in GMT instead. As a side-effect, each time we open the node edit form and save it again, the scheduled state transition moves 1 hour forward.

While trying to find the right part in the code to solve this I also discovered that workflow for D7 still uses Drupal's timezone variable as if it contains a GMT offset like it was in D6, while D7 actually uses real timezones now.

Patch attached which fixes both issues at once.
