Bug description:strtotime does not handle MySQL Fuzzy Dates Correctly

Description:
------------
The function strtotime doesn't handle MySQL fuzzy dates correctly, in MySQL
it is possible to store fuzzy dates replacing the unknown date figure with
00, for example.

2010-10-00 00:00:00

which is UK format Y-m-d



If you pass this script to strtotime and wrap the date function around it:



date('M y', (strtotime($monrow['eventdate'])));



PHP will return Oct 10, which is a month out as it should return Nov 10.



Workaround is to use str_replace to change the 00 to 01 when processing.

Test script:
---------------
date('M y', (strtotime("2010-10-00 00:00:00")));

Expected result:
----------------
Nov 10 (Month as specified)

Actual result:
--------------
Oct 10 (Previous Month)
