>Description:
/bin/date does not believe that December has 31 days
>How-To-Repeat:
December 30 works:
% date -v30d -v12m -v7y
Sun Dec 30 13:04:56 EST 2007
Dec 31 does not:
% date -v31d -v12m -v7y
31d: Cannot apply date adjustment
usage: date [-jnu] [-d dst] [-r seconds] [-t west] [-v[+|-]val[ymwdHMS]] ...
[-f fmt date | [[[[[cc]yy]mm]dd]HH]MM[.ss]] [+format]
>Fix:
A quick glance at the code shows that the constant table lists 31 days for December so it's going to take a bit more effort than that.
