>Description:
Date adjustment using the -v option seems not work for any date with
the 31th day of a month. Two examples. First one with a good result
and the second leads to an unexpected error. Is it a bug?

dtanke$ date -v30d -v08m -v2000y 
Wed Aug 30 21:27:24 CEST 2000

dtanke$ date -v31d -v08m -v2000y 
31d: Cannot apply date adjustment

This example with "31" works well with 4.1 RELEASE.

dtanke$ date  -jf "%d.%m.%Y" 31.08.2000
Do  31 Aug 2000 21:38:15 CEST

	

>How-To-Repeat:
Same results with 2.2.8, 3.2, 4.0 and 4.1 RELEASE.

	

>Fix:
I am no programmer, sorry.
