Using...

date (GNU coreutils) 8.32

I have noticed that %-N when used with the data command no longer 
appears to always remove leading zeros, instead it appears to be 
removing trailing zeros? Obviously, removing trailing zeroes will 
changes it value.
 From the date manual '(hyphen) do not pad the field'
As an example of this...

for i in {1..100}; do date +'%-N'; sleep 0.01; done

...can return the following values.
