[Good advice, except:]
NSCalendar can handle overflow, so you can have an NSDateComponent
that says something like Year:2008 Month:1 Days:364 and you will
get the right date from components.
You should not rely on this behaviour.
Oh dear, thanks for noticing that! I should have double-checked: Only -
dateByAddingComponents:toDate:options: is documented to handle
"overflow". Not -dateFromComponents:, which is actually documented to
return nil for out-of-range values. Sorry about that.
