Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php
Numbers starting with a 0 are octal numbers. 08 is an invalid octal number and
turns into 0.

Description:
------------
In the mktime() function if you add a "0" before the number of the month of
August or September (eg. august -> 08) the result is something wrong. See
example below.
It seems this happens only with "08" and "09", not with "07", "06", etc.
I discovered this because August 12th 2012 (08-12-2012) is the last day of the
next Olympic games in London.
Hope this helps
bye

Test script:
---------------
<?php
$timestamp1 = mktime(23,59,59,08,12,2012);
$timestamp2 = mktime(23,59,59, 8,12,2012);
$out1 = date("m-d-Y H:i:s",$timestamp1);
$out2 = date("m-d-Y H:i:s",$timestamp2);
echo "DATE1 is : $out1\n";
echo "DATE2 is : $out2\n";
/*
output is:
DATE1 is : 12-12-2011 23:59:59 <---- IT SAYS DEC 12 2011 !!!
DATE2 is : 08-12-2012 23:59:59
*/
?>
Expected result:
----------------
DATE1 is : 08-12-2012 23:59:59
DATE2 is : 08-12-2012 23:59:59
Actual result:
--------------
DATE1 is : 12-12-2011 23:59:59
DATE2 is : 08-12-2012 23:59:59
