Description:
------------
When  a string like "04/04/04 0045" is passed to strtotime(), it returns -1. 

Reproduce code:
---------------
echo "The following line rightly shows the correct date time\r\n";
echo date("m/d/y Hi", strtotime("04/04/04 2345"));
echo "\r\nBut the following line fails to show the correct date time\r\n";
echo date("m/d/y Hi", strtotime("04/04/04 0045"))."\r\n";

Expected result:
----------------
The following line rightly shows the correct date time
04/04/04 2345
But the following line fails to show the correct date time
04/04/04 0045



Actual result:
--------------
The following line rightly shows the correct date time
04/04/04 2345
But the following line fails to show the correct date time
01/01/70 0559

'00' is the designation for midnight as returned by the date() function, as in: date('m/d/Y Hi')

For sanity's sake, it really should work.

BTW, strtotime DOES work with input such as 8/20/2004 00:23, it's only without the colon that it seems to fail.
