Bug description:incorrect years for DateTime objects created with 4-digit years

Description:

>From manual page: http://www.php.net/datetime.construct

---

I'm actually using PHP 5.3.2. Apologies for not testing against 5.3.6.



DateTime objects created with any of the following strings result in
incorrect years:

'January 0099' -> 1999

'January 1, 0099' -> 1999

'0099-01' -> 1999



However, all of the following work correctly:

'0099' -> 0099

'0099-01-01' -> 0099

'01-01-0099' -> 0099



I imagine this is due to DateTime parsing 0099 into 99 in the bad examples
(and thus triggering the 1900 addition). This bug currently blocks the
following MediaWiki bug:
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28655

Test script:
---------------
$tz = new DateTimeZone("Europe/Amsterdam");

$dateObject = new DateTime( 'January 0099', $tz );

echo $dateObject->format( 'Y' );

$dateObject = new DateTime( 'January 1, 0099', $tz );

echo $dateObject->format( 'Y' );

$dateObject = new DateTime( '0099-01', $tz );

echo $dateObject->format( 'Y' );

Expected result:
----------------
0099

0099

0099

Actual result:
--------------
1999

1999

1999
