Hmmm.....yeah, it's not ideal, I guess. Dates.day(::Integer) is indeed an
internal method that takes the # of Rata Die days (i.e. the value of
Int(Date(2015,1,1))) and returns the day of the month for that Rata Die. It
might be worth documenting so that it's more clear what's going on when
people search/help it.
