I'm I the only one to think that those have no purpose (especially on a loosely typed language like PHP?). Moreover, those are fixed length, which is ugly, and I only had problem with those on some DBMS (ie. Oracle) that assume that date/time types should be locale dependent (both in term of order of arguments AND in timezone).

Well, still -1. I don't think we ever need them. DATE and TIME fields are ugly, and we have perfectly working timestamps.
