Assuming the issue is related to June only having 30 days, which then pushes it
to the next month July.
<?php
2 //Expected 30/06
3 echo date('d/m', strtotime('+1 MONTH'));
4 //Result 01/07
5
6 //Expected 30/06
7 echo gmdate('d/m', strtotime('+1 MONTH'));
8 //Result 01/07
9
10 //Expected 01/06
11 echo date('d/m', strtotime('first day of +1 month'));
12 //Result 01/06
Could be safe to assume that the function should check the limits of each month
to prevent it from going past the extreme.

Description:
------------
Came across the wrong month being returned when using the following:
<?php echo date('m', strtotime('+1 MONTH')); ?>
Expected: 06
Result: 07
I've only noticed this occur Today (31st of May 2012).
Altered my php.ini to use the following config as well:
date.timezone = "Australia/Sydney"
date.default_latitude = -35.308142
date.default_longitude = 149.124518
Thinking it could be a timezone issue. Also attempted use of gmdate.
What I found to work was:
<?php echo date('m', strtotime('first day of +1 month')); ?>
Expected: 06
Result: 06
Test script:
---------------
<?php
//Expected 06
echo date('m', strtotime('+1 MONTH'));
//Result 07
//Expected 06
echo gmdate('m', strtotime('+1 MONTH'));
//Result 07
//Expected 06
echo date('m', strtotime('first day of +1 month'));
//Result 06
Expected result:
----------------
060606
Actual result:
--------------
070706
