Description:
------------
If you run strftime() on a date in the last week of a year (e.g. 30 December 2014), and  the new year begins in the same week, the outputted date is "30 Dec 2015".

Test script:
---------------
<?php

$tmpTime = 1419937605; // 30 Dec 2014

var_dump(strftime('%e %b %G (%a)', $tmpTime));


Expected result:
----------------
string(17) "30 Dec 2014 (Tue)"

Actual result:
--------------
string(17) "30 Dec 2015 (Tue)"

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

%G is the "year of the ISO week number". December 30 is in week 1 of ISO year 2015. You want %Y.
