Description:
------------
$datetime1 = strtotime("June 06, 2009 10:00 AM");
$datetime2 = strtotime("+1 Saturday 10:00 AM", $datetime1);
$datetime1 and $datetime2 should be one week apart but they are equal

strtotime("next Saturday 10:00 AM", $datetime1) will work correctly however.

As a human, how would you interpret such string? I wouldn't know you want it to be one WEEK ahead, I though you wanted one DAY ahead.. :)

So it's quite unfixable.
