To fix this, a work around for me now is:
$> date -d"$(date -d"04:00") +1 day"
Mon Jan 18 04:00:00 EST 2016
The +1 is taken as a timezone offset.
You'll want:
date -d '04:00 today +1 day'
Note also the relative date discussion at:
http://bugs.gnu.org/18159
date now supports the "--debug" option
to make such troubleshooting easier.
With no further comments in over a year,
I'm closing this bug.
