      After applying the patch from:
      http://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-34708
      https://github.com/nebgor/moodle/commit/201816346877bde81b2673908efd2bb598fdccf5
      our date picker was working correctly until today.

      The date picker now does the following:
      August 2012 has the name of August 2012
      September 2012 has the name of October 2012
      October 2012 has the name of October 2012
      Nov 12 -> Dec 12
      Dec 12 -> Dec 12
      Jan 13 -> Jan 13
      Feb 12 -> Mar 13
      Mar 13 -> Mar 13
      Apr 13 -> May 13
      May 13 -> May 13
      Jun 13 -> Jul 13
      Jul 13 -> Jul 13
      Aug 13 -> Aug 13

      I tested this on latest code from the git repo, Moodle 2.3.1+ (Build: 20120831), and it has the issue as well. When test it was Aug 31, ~12:30pm MDT. I made sure the timezone data was up to date and tried different server default timezone settings. I wonder if it is a boundary condition problem because of the end of the month with 31 days. It looks like if a month has 31 days it displays the correct name and if it has less it displays the next month.
