It makes sense that Internaldate2tuple() returns local time because timetuple (with its tm_isdst flag) strongly suggests local time.  (See also issue 9004.)

If UTC or any other timezone time is needed, it would be best to provide a function that would return an aware datetime object.

I made some changes to Joe's patch in attached diff.  I would appreciate another pair of eyes to look at it before I commit.
