  Problem Description:
  Calendar displays work times incorrectly for months where
  daylight
  savings starts and finishes
  
  When viewing a calendar, in specific months (i.e. October and
  April) it
  displays the working times incorrectly.  This coincides with
  the
  start/finish months of daylight savings.
  
  Replication steps:
  1. Create a calendar start date 01/07/2012 to 30/06/2015
  2. Define a Shift Pattern of 7, with 1 to 5 as working days
  
     Start Day: MONDAY             Start Time   End Time  Work
  Hours
     Sequence of Pattern Day: 01    8:00        17:00       08:00
                              02    8:00        17:00       08:00
                              03    8:00        17:00       08:00
                              04    8:00        17:00       08:00
                              05    8:00        17:00       08:00
                              06
                              07
  
  3.Apply this Shift Pattern to the calendar
  4.Navigate through the months and observe results below
  For example:
  September 2012: OK. Work days are from Monday to Friday.
  October 2012: Not OK.  Work days are from Sunday and Thursday.
  November 2012: OK.
  December 2012: OK.
  January 2013:  OK.
  February 2013: OK.
  March 2013:    OK.
  April 2013:    Not OK. Work days are from Thursday to Monday
