I am using NSDateFormatter.  The code snippet included shows this.

I think it's a known issue.  The documentation for -[NSDate
descriptionWithCalendarFormat:timeZone:locale:] (which I can only
assume that -[NSDate description] calls) has this caveat:

"There are several problems with the implementation of this method
that cannot be fixed for compatibility reasons. To format a date
correctly, you should consider using a date formatter object instead
(see NSDateFormatter and Data Formatting Programming Guide for
Cocoa)."

So, don't log NSDate objects, send them through an NSDateFormatter instead.
