Bug description:On 64 bit strtotime() mishandles all-zero timestamps
Description:
------------
The behavior of strtotime() on 64 bit machines (see below) for all-zero
timestamps is undesirable. On 32 bit machines the function outputs NULL
for a string input "0000-00-00 00:00", on 64 bit machines it yields
-62169987600. This is undesirable, as the all-zero timestamp is not a
valid date ("00" is not a month). On 64 bit systems strtotime() should
return NULL for "0000-00-00 00:00".
Test script:
---------------
/* Linux ubuntu64-vbox 2.6.38-8-server #42-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 11 03:49:04
UTC
* 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
* PHP 5.3.6-6~dotdeb.1 with Suhosin-Patch (cli) (built: Apr 3 2011
16:36:05)
*/
<?php
echo strtotime("0000-00-00 00:00");
?>
Actual result:
--------------
-62169987600
