Bob, Saying that the reports had changed got me to look at history, which reminded me that on maint the Fancy Date setting doesn't actually work and that Geert fixed it in master last year. I think his idea was that the user might want to have reports dated in UTC instead of the local time-zone, but I don't remember the reasoning. Perhaps he does. Until he chimes in let's leave it on the list. Otherwise, yes, test for a setting and use the default if there isn't one.
