This change is about the SimpleDateFormat format string. According to
the JDK 1.4.2 API docs:
"Date and Time Patterns
[snip]
Within date and time pattern strings, unquoted letters from 'A' to 'Z'
and from 'a' to 'z' are interpreted as pattern letters representing the
components of a date or time string."
See http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/classpath/2003-11/msg00204.html for
more details.
If you still think it's a bug, I'd appreciate a test case that we can
put into mauve.
cheers,
