Bug#785515: libcommons-validator-java: FTBFS with TZ=NZ: testCompare(DateValidatorTest): date EQ expected:<0> but was:<1>

[Chris West (Faux)]

Package: libcommons-validator-java
Version: 1:1.4.1-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

In timezones that are far away from GMT, one of the date related tests fails:

Failed tests:   testCompare(org.apache.commons.validator.routines.DateValidatorTest):
date EQ expected:<0> but was:<1>

e.g. try TZ=NZ dpkg-buildpackage

NZ: New Zealand, currently UTC+12 (but does have DST)
