Bug description:  incorrect example for date() constant

Description:
------------
The documentation for date() gives a number of examples for the new
constants added in PHP 5.1.1:

http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.datetime.php

The first example:

DATE_ATOM  (string)
    Atom (example: 2005-08-15T15:52:01+00:00)

is incorrect - the actual output has no colon in the timezone offset
(though I believe one is missing from the W3C format, though I'll file a
separate bug for that).


Reproduce code:
---------------
Simple function call:

date( DATE_ATOM, getlastmod() )

produces output of the form:

2006-03-03T15:41:46+1100

which according to the documentation should be:

2006-03-03T15:41:46+11:00

(ie., colon in timezone offset).  The documentation and code are
inconsistent.


Expected result:
----------------
See "reproduce code" section;  expected output (as per documentation) is:

2006-03-03T15:41:46+11:00

Actual result:
--------------
See "reproduce code" section;  actual result is:

2006-03-03T15:41:46+1100
