Description:
------------
When using strtotime to parse dates if an 'am' or 'pm' is added without specifying a year false will be returned.

Reproduce code:
---------------
echo date('r', strtotime('May 18th 5:05'));
echo date('r', strtotime('May 18th 5:05pm'));
echo date('r', strtotime('May 18th 5:05 pm'));
echo date('r', strtotime('May 18th 5:05am'));
echo date('r', strtotime('May 18th 5:05 am'));
echo date('r', strtotime('May 18th 2006 5:05pm'));



Expected result:
----------------
Thu, 18 May 2006 05:05:00 -0700
Thu, 18 May 2006 17:05:00 -0700

This seems to be the expected behaviour, as it returns -1 on PHP4.4.3-dev,4.3,6 , and false in PHP 5.2-dev.however im not sure it is the "desired" behaviour..;-)

Definitely not a bug... in PHP 4 not even the first one works actually. That doesn't mean we can't have a look if we can add support for this format though.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.
