WP is buggy. It does very strange things with the time zone offset, so everything but a zero offset is going to cause problems.
I did start a patch, but there was too much I did not understand in their code.
Any chance we can revert then to the previous state where the WP date was not touched at all?
We should then make a check so that it only applies to WP systems [1], as I expect majority of blog systems can handle dates correctly (the previous behavior was to not send the date at all, due to a bug, which was fixed because a user actually requested this working.)
[1] We might need an environment variable, since a WP system using UTC +0000 (like mine :) ) does work fine with WP.
