localtime() acting like gmtime() in Perl

[Charles Plager]

Hello,
	localtime() seems to be returning  GMT instead of the local time.  I've 
tested the same script on three different machines.  (Unfortunately, on 
linux and sgi, they are using perl 5.6.1 whereas on cygwin, I'm using 
5.8.2, but I don't *think* it's a perl bug).  If I just use 'date', I 
get the correct local time.  Any ideas?

	TIA,
	  Charles

---- script -----
#!/usr/bin/perl

my $localt = localtime();
my $gmt = gmtime();
system "date";
print "local $localt\ngmt $gmt\n";
