Description:

Reproduce code:
---------------
input:

1. "Tue, 11 Apr 2006 17:09:22 GMT"
2. "Tue, 11 Apr 2006 20:26:57 +0000 (GMT)"
3. ""


function check_date($s)
{
   $muster = "/(Mon, |Tue, |Wed, |Thu, |Fri, |Sat, |Sun, )?(\d\d?) (.{3})
(\d\d\d\d) (\d\d:\d\d(:\d\d)?) (([+-](\d\d(\d\d)))|GMT)/";
   $result = "";
   $result = preg_replace_callback($muster, create_function('$match',
                 '$mon = array("Jan" => "01", "Feb" => "02", "Mar" => "03",
                               "Apr" => "04", "May" => "05", "Jun" => "06",
                               "Jul" => "07", "Aug" => "08", "Sep" => "09",
                               "Okt" => "10", "Nov" => "11", "Dez" => "12");
                  $mm = $mon[$match[3]];
                  return "{$match[2]}.{$mm}.{$match[4]}";
                 '),
             $s);
   return $result;
}


Expected result:
----------------
1. "11.04.2006"
2. "11.04.2006"
3. ""


Actual result:
--------------
1. "11.04.2006"
2. "11.04.2006 (GMT)"
3. ""

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions.  Due to the volume
of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not
a bug.  The support channels will be able to provide an explanation
for you.

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

Your regex fetches the GMT, so where is the problem.

But it does not return $match[7] which might contain GMT 
but _not_ (GMT).
