Hi.
date(1) command parses next $day_of_week_today (where
$day_of_week_today is today's day name) incorrectly:
$ date
Tue Dec 9 17:16:50 GMT 2008
$ date -d next `date +%A`
Tue Dec 9 00:00:00 GMT 2008
It should print the next Tuesday's date, i.e. today + 7 days.
Cheers,
Jan.

You've just demonstrated that the bug is present in the French
localization as well -- the you got is *today*, not *next* Wednesday,
as it should
