Fascinating. On further research with the above hint, I find that if
there is a dddd or a MMMM in there, or if the dd is made into a
simple 'd', the fix falls apart and the formatting gets ugly again.
It just can't cope with long day or month names, i.e. any field which
significantly changes width. What a truly dumb control.
