It is intended behaviour - from ICal/RFC2445 specification:
4.3.10 Recurrence Rule
[...]
If BYxxx rule part values are found which are beyond the available
scope (ie, BYMONTHDAY=30 in February), they are simply ignored.
If you want "last day of month" you can use "negative" notation:
(these examples are from RFC2445)
Monthly on the third to the last day of the month, forever:
DTSTART;TZID=US-Eastern:19970928T090000
RRULE:FREQ=MONTHLY;BYMONTHDAY=-3
Monthly on the first and last day of the month for 10 occurrences:
DTSTART;TZID=US-Eastern:19970930T090000
RRULE:FREQ=MONTHLY;COUNT=10;BYMONTHDAY=1,-1
Thanks for testing this module!
