strtotime is sort of 'fuzzy' function. Do not pass just anything to
it..as you'll get out just about anything then.

Is this with the win32 version? There may be a discrepancy.

It returns the expected result "29 May 2004" to me.

strtotime /is/ parsing correctly, it is treating it as Month Day.
2001st of May 2004 = 22nd October 2009. Pass a day to avoid confusion.

Description:
------------
strtotime is attempting and failing to read dates in a "month year"
format. Both long and short months are affected. It is then returning
wildly wrong timestamps. Since the date cannot be correctly parsed, it
should return -1, or be modified to correctly parse it.
Reproduce code:
---------------
echo date("j M Y",strtotime("May 2001"));
Expected result:
----------------
1 May 2001
or
1 January 1969
Actual result:
--------------
22 Oct 2009
