Thank you Sven. I had made the fixes myself, creating a new class for dates (I don't need the complexity of Date just for determining if a date is past, I don't need date arithmetic either). I just wanted to inform, mainly because the bug seems to be still present in Pharo 3.0.
Anyway, your solution does not work for the 'd/m/y' pattern, although it does for 'd/m/yy'. I could write the tests you suggest, if you think they are interesting.
