I hate time zones. ;)

I'd like to keep the change in this commit, as I think it's a lot
clearer if sign ends up negative when the character is '-' and positive
when it's '+'. It was backwards before.

I expanded the test in question to cover the breakage I was trying to
correct. I back-tested the "original" code, the rewritten code (i.e.
before the commit in question), the current code, and my latest fix. I
think I have a handle on it, and I've pushed a correct as e5c1b7f9486d.

As always, another set of eyes on the commit wouldn't hurt.
