I think I have good news for you. The roots of this bug are in glibc
project, this bug:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10871
It has been fixed now. But coreutils and date command line utility
does not use strftime() from glibc directly. Instead it uses fprintftime()
from Gnulib.
Indeed, it was a bug in glibc locale data [1] and has been fixed [2]
in version 2.17. If you mention Fedora the fix has been included
in Fedora 19. Please close this bug report, it was not a coreutils
issue and it has been fixed 5.5 years ago.

same bug report that
there should be no additional limit for the month length.
This bug may be related with the coreutils bug #29377. [5]
