Description:
------------
The documentation of "first day" says "Sets the day of the first of the current month." (http://php.net/manual/de/datetime.formats.relative.php), but it will return sometimes the first day of the next month.

For 2014-07-30 it returns 2014-07-01
For 2014-07-31 it returns 2014-08-01
For 2014-08-01 it returns 2014-08-01

There's a related bug which fixed a similiar issue in PHP 5.3 (https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53778)

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

$currentMonthDate = new DateTime("2014-07-31 10:26:00.000000");
echo $currentMonthDate->format('Ym');

$currentMonthDate->modify('first day');
echo $currentMonthDate->format('Ym');

?>

Expected result:
----------------
201407
201407

Actual result:
--------------
201407
201408

From Derick in bug #51096:
    "first day" and "last day" should be "+1 day" and "-1 day".

The documentation should be updated to reflect this behaviour, as currently the "first/last day of" section says the "of" is optional when it is not.

Grr wrong "quick fix" message again! Here's what it should have said:

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.

And, thanks again!
