The issue seems to be that there is currently no parsing done for the D/l 
parameters. I've added a patch and a test that seems to fix the issue.

Description:
------------
If the format only includes a day string ('D' or 'l'), it is ignored, and a 

DateTime instance for the current date/time is returned. Maybe I'm a stupid 
idiot, 

but I would expect either an error, or for it to return a DateTime object for 
the 

next occurrence of the given day (similar to \DateTime::__construct('Monday');)

Test script:
---------------
<?php                                                                           
                       

                                                                                
                       

$date = new \DateTime('tomorrow');                                              
                       

$date2 = \DateTime::createFromFormat('D', $date->format('D'));                  
                       

                                                                                
                       

var_dump($date);                                                                
                       

var_dump($date->format('D'));                                                   
                       

var_dump($date2);                                                               
                       

var_dump($date2->format('D'));

Expected result:
----------------
I expect the same date/day to be selected in both cases.

Actual result:
--------------
object(DateTime)#1 (3) {

  ["date"]=>

  string(19) "2011-05-19 00:00:00"

  ["timezone_type"]=>

  int(3)

  ["timezone"]=>

  string(16) "America/New_York"

}

string(3) "Thu"

object(DateTime)#2 (3) {

  ["date"]=>

  string(19) "2011-05-18 18:49:33"

  ["timezone_type"]=>

  int(3)

  ["timezone"]=>

  string(16) "America/New_York"

}

string(3) "Wed"
