I just looked at the above bugs. I get the same results as were reported 
with #62; that is, I get a 2 instead of a 0 when converting a plain date 
to date items when no time is specified.

The others work okay for me though, and I don't see any extra hour added 
to the conversion results. I'm in daylight time right now in the U.S. 
Could it be related to time zones outside the U.S.?
