That reminds me of the Windows Mobile 6.5 device with built-in GPS receiver, where on the 31st day of the month, the API would actually output the date as the 0th day of the following month. This wouldn't have been a problem, except that we were using that to set the system clock. The devices would reset their clock if allowed to go completely flat, but they didn't have reliable NTP support either. I believe the OS would just ignore our attempt to set the date to an invalid value, leaving it at the system default date.

It was a struggle to get the vendor to even acknowledge the problem, since it would only happen on 7 days out of the year, and usually 60 days apart. (There are only two consecutive months with 31 days, July and August.) It did eventually get fixed.

I seem to recall writing a workaround, but then it being stalled by our customer's Change Control Board.
