Once I have the 2 times in seconds (now and later), I determine is DST 
(Damn Stupid Time, it really makes time calculations more complicated 
for no actual benefit) is active for each of them. This is done using 
the PHP date function; date('I', $time).

If DST is active later but not now, add the DST offset to the interval.

If DST is active now but not later, subtract the DST offset from the 
interval.

"DST offset" is usually 3600 (60*60 for "add 1 hour"), unless you live 
on Lord Howe Island (1800) or Troll Station, Antarctica (7200);

The interval is now ready to be converted to days by dividing by 86400.
