Try taking out the plus sign - date interprets this as a timezone
specifier.
Indeed. This question has been asked before:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2007-07/msg00071.html
Would it be worthwhile adding yydebug support to date (and touch) with,
say, a --date-debug flag? I tried turning it on and the output is
confusingly dense, not even printing the token in all cases.
I see from the bison manual that a custom yyprint function can be
provided, but I'm not familiar enough with parsers to suggest one.
Cheers,
Phil
