See online help for syntax and definition of the MONTH-function:

<quote>
MONTH(Number)
Number, as a time value, is a decimal for which the month is to be returned.
</quote>

The MONTH-function is not meant to process text. You can not complain about a
function´s result when using invalid arguments. You may complain about the
inconsistent behaviour of "foreign builds", though.

The only correct way to process the number of the month out of the text value
'Apr 1 is:

=MONTH(DATEVALUE(A1))

Try this and you will get an error code in case the text can not be interpreted
as a date. That´s just what you expect. ;-)
