Maybe this clears it for you:
# php -r 'echo date("z", mktime(1,1,1,1,1,2003));'
0
The count starts from 0..

And, IMHO, the example you gave,
echo date("z");
thus also seems to give incorrect results.

Month / days (2003)
Jan: 31
Feb: 28
Mar: 31
Apr: 30
May: 31
Jun: 30
Jul: 31
Aug: 31
Sep: 30
TOTAL: 273 days
Currently 8th of Oct, 2003, thus
PLUS 8 days (273 + 8). So today is day: 281
Thus, in my humble opinion, mcal_day_of_year() seem
correct, getdate() seems not to be. But, if getdate() is
correct, then that makes all the calendars and organizers,
paper and computer, incorrect when they state Oct 8, 2003,
as being day '281' and not '280'.
I did "RTFM" as you had suggested. "0-366" just indicates
the number range, correct?
Cheers,

And RTFM: yday == 0-366 days

Day count for this date (2003-10-08) is 280.
e.g.
# php -r 'echo date("z");'
280
It's propably mcal that is broken. (and I mean the library, not
extension)

Description:
------------
The array key 'yday' from getdate() is one day less than it
should be. Bug can be confirmed using mcal_day_of_year().
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$y = date(Y);
$m = date(n);
$d = date(j);
echo mcal_day_of_year($y,$m,$d) . "<br />";
$day_year = getdate();
echo $day_year[yday];
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Example date:
2003-10-8
Expected result:
281
281
Actual result:
--------------
Example date:
2003-10-8
Actual result:
281
280
