In my experiments (admittedly with 3.4, not 3.3, but I don't know that there's any difference), I was able to round-trip a time_t through datetime with no problems. Why not simply use a UTC datetime instead of a naive one? What do you gain by using a naive datetime? You seem to know what timezone it's in anyway.
