On Kaffe, an exception is not thrown, but SimpleDateFormat gives invalid parsed
result in some cases.  Testcase:  import java.text.SimpleDateFormat; import
java.util.Date;  public class TestSimpleDateFormat {   public static void
main(String[] args) throws Exception {     SimpleDateFormat sdf = new
SimpleDateFormat(args[0]);     Date d = sdf.parse(args[1]);    
System.out.println(d);   } }  Results: $ java TestSimpleDateFormat yyMM 0701
Sat Jan 01 00:00:00 GMT+09:00 0701 $ java TestSimpleDateFormat yy 07   Sat Jan
01 00:00:00 GMT+09:00 0007  NumberFormat#parse used in SimpleDateFormat seems
to be the cause of this trouble.  Testcase:  import java.text.*; import
java.util.*;  public class TestNumberFormat {    public static void
main(String[] args) {     Locale locale = Locale.getDefault();     NumberFormat
nf = NumberFormat.getInstance(locale);     nf.setMinimumIntegerDigits(2);    
nf.setMaximumIntegerDigits(2);     ParsePosition pos = new ParsePosition(0);   
 Number n = nf.parse(args[0], pos);     System.out.println(n);   }  }  Results:
$ java TestNumberFormat 0701 701 $ java TestNumberFormat 0700001 700001  I am
afraid setMaximumIntegerDigits does not work as expected.  But Sun's JDK gives
similar results for TestNumberFormat.
