  <para>
   <function>date_sunrise</function> returns the sunrise time for a given
   day (specified as a <parameter>timestamp</parameter>) and location. The
   <parameter>latitude</parameter>, <parameter>longitude</parameter> and
   <parameter>zenith</parameter> parameters default to the
   <literal>date.default_latitude</literal>,
   <literal>date.default_longitude</literal> and
   <literal>date.sunrise_zenith</literal> configuration options,
   respectively.
  </para>
  <para>
   The <parameter>latitude</parameter> defaults to North. So, if you want to
   specify a South value, you must pass a negative value. The same note
   applies to <parameter>longitude</parameter>, which defaults to East.
  </para>
  <para>
   The <parameter>gmt_offset</parameter> parameter is specified in hours.
