Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.jddayofweek
---

The $mode parameter is an integer (0, 1 or 2) for which
predefined constants are also available.

Numeric parameters work as per the documentation:
0 = numeric
1 = long name
2 = short name

But if the constants CAL_DOW_LONG and CAL_DOW_SHORT are used,
the wrong results are returned.  CAL_DOW_LONG gives the short
name and CAL_DOW_SHORT gives the long name.

The bug is present in all versions of PHP from 5.3 through 5.6.

Test script:
---------------
print_r(jddayofweek(1234567, 1)); // "Saturday"
print_r(jddayofweek(1234567, CAL_DOW_LONG)); // "Sat" (WRONG)
print_r(CAL_DOW_LONG); // 2

print_r(jddayofweek(1234567, 2)); // "Sat"
print_r(CAL_DOW_SHORT); // 1
print_r(jddayofweek(1234567, CAL_DOW_SHORT)); // "Saturday" (WRONG)

haha, nice catch, this seems to be wrong since the begining:
http://3v4l.org/OXRAC
the fix should be swapping the lines here:
http://lxr.php.net/xref/PHP_5_6/ext/calendar/calendar.c#699
I suppose this could also go into 5.5 as well.

I think you need to:

1) reverse the order in the enum {} declaration
2) reverse the two labels in the case statement

I have a patch/tests, but can't get the latest code to build so can't test it.

I'll try again tonight when I have access to another dev machine.

why do you think we should change the order of declaration in the enum?
 [2014-09-04 15:53 UTC] tyrael@php.net 
ah, that would keep the previous behavior for the people who are passing numeric values for the mode instead of using the constants.
