Comment (by tricoder42):

 I understand that usually templates handle exceptions silently, printing
 nothing on error. I just don't like the idea that for one hour a year, the
 template won't display datetime at all (for naive datetimes). Yes, we're
 making a decision instead of users, but they won't know about this issue,
 since it's occurrence is so rare. This isn't a common scenario which is
 easily tested.

 Maybe at least show warning so user can see in logs what happened and why?
