My patch fixes it by subtracting the GMT offset from the first thing 
passed to the human_time_diff() function (not in the function, in 
/wp-admin/index.php where it passes parameters to it).

It isn't making sense to me... by subtracting time from the "now" time, 
shouldn't that make the time between "now" and the future date bigger?  
Adding the offset back in (or switching to 0 the GMT switch in 
current_time()) makes my offset go from 5 hours to 10 hours (off by 
double my GMT offset).  Anyway... I don't have to understand it. :-)
