Hello,

February of 2013 does not work, it comes up with March twice!

/bin/date --date=-6 month +%b%Y = Apr2013
/bin/date --date=-7 month +%b%Y = Mar2013
/bin/date --date=-8 month +%b%Y = Mar2013
/bin/date --date=-9 month +%b%Y = Jan2013

Neither of these work:

file /bin/date
/bin/date: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), 
dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.9, stripped

file /bin/date
/bin/date: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), 
dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.18, stripped

Thanks,
Andy
