• bug fix. values returned from phase() were incorrect by the amount of timezone offset between localtime to gmtime. Values were based on the use of localtime() instead of gmtime() in jtime(). jtime() is now much simplified, and jdate() has been eliminated.
• phasehunt() rewritten, but still returning phases from the wrong lunation, skipping the correct dates. behavior slightly changed.
