Hi! I've found that date handles the relative items "tomorrow" and "day" differently. According to the info-page these should be equivalent. (I've read this in: (coreutils.info)Relative items in date strings)
The oddity that I've found is that tomorrow doesn't add a full day when daylight saving time starts or ends. In Sweden daylight savings is ending at October 26 this year. If one run `date --date="2003-10-26 tomorrow"` to convert an iso-8601 date into local time (and add a day at the same time), one doesn't get the date and time of the 27 October but instead the time 23:00 at the 26'th of October. If one instead run `date --date="2003-10-26 day"` one get the time and date of midnight, October 27. This also seems to apply to the relatives yesterday/day ago. It both applies to the start and end of daylight savings. If this is a desired behavior of the relative tomorrow, the difference between tommorow and day should perhaps be pointed out in the info-page. I'm not on the bug-tracking mailinglist, so any replies (wich are warmly welcome) must also be done to my e-mailadress. I would also like to thank for all the great software that FSF and the GNU project has given the world!
