For your information:

Until now we found with php / phpGroupWare only one problem on
the Itanium 2 machine.

phpGW has used mktime() with day values <= 0
This seems to be fixed (magically) by the underlying Unix mktime() function
on 32-Bit Linux/Windows Systems, but not on the RedHat Itanium 2
distribution we used for testing.

I have no idea if other php scripts will work in the same way,
so it might be an idea to catch this kind of error within
the php mktime() C-code.

Greetings

Do you have a script to illustrate this problem ?

This is a valid and documented way of using mktime to do date calculation.

No, it is (or should be) handled in the PHP code.

Do you have a same script showing what you get and what you expect?
Which version of PHP are you using?
