Description:
------------
Since php 5.2.9 modify function behaviour have change, in both case "next $weekday" always go to the next specified weekday ("next weekday" > "today"), but in 5.2.9 and 5.2.10 "+1 $weekday" go to the first encoutered specified weekday including today ("next weekday" >= "today"). 

The behaviour of older php versions seems more logical to me, '+1' should have the same behaviour than 'next'.

Reproduce code:
---------------
// Since php 5.2.9
$date  = new Datetime("2009-06-01");
$date->modify("+1 ".$date->format("l")); // == ('+1 monday')
echo $date->format("Y-m-d")."\n"; 
$date->modify("next ".$date->format("l")); // == ('next monday')
echo $date->format("Y-m-d")."\n"; 


Expected result:
----------------
2009-06-08
2009-06-08

Actual result:
--------------
2009-06-01
2009-06-08

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not

I've triple checked the doc, it seems to make reference to the gnu input date format. gnu date command behave like this :
$ date --version
date (GNU coreutils) 7.4
$ date
Mon Jun 29 14:05:30 CEST 2009
$ date -s "1 monday" +%F
2009-07-06
$ date -s "next monday" +%F
2009-07-06

But it's true that this bug is a duplicate of #46932 wich still open, so sorry for the noise.
