I took a look at this bug, and believe I have a patch that will resolve it.

$ ../src/date --debug -d '2024-01-01 8:00:00PM -0500'
date: parsed date part: (Y-M-D) 2024-01-01

And I was able to run the coreutils testsuite with no tests failing:

============================================================================
Testsuite summary for GNU coreutils 9.7.174-083f8
============================================================================
# TOTAL: 533
# PASS:  476
# SKIP:  57
# XFAIL: 0
# FAIL:  0
# XPASS: 0
# ERROR: 0
============================================================================

Are there any other tests/changes I should consider for this?


Below is the patch for the changes I made for this, including a new
testcase for AM/PM with timezone.
