Description:
------------
The test script below prints '2370-01-00' as the result, which is obviously wrong.

Test script:
---------------
<?php
    $date = new \DateTime('2370-01-31');
    echo $date->sub(new \DateInterval('P1M'))->format('Y-m-d'); 
?>


Expected result:
----------------
2369-12-31

Actual result:
--------------
2370-01-00
