Description:
------------
 Since today (2004-03-30), we experience a calculation error when using strtotime("-1 month") to get previous month date. Maybe this error is due to the fact that 2004 is a bissextile year. The last bissextile year was 1996.

Reproduce code:
---------------
 The actual computer date must be 2004-03-30.

<?
  print strftime("%Y-%m-%d", strtotime("-1 month"))."\n";
?>

Expected result:
----------------
2004-02-29

Actual result:
--------------
2004-03-01

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

march 30 - 1 month = feb 30; that doesn\'t exist and is the same as march 1.
