Follow-up Comment:
The line causing your problem is:

 date.set(0,0,0); 



Note that the default calendar is the Gregorian one, which does not have a
year zero (1 AD was the year after 1 BC). 



The date created by the JDK by date.set(0,0,0) is Dec 31, year 2; which is
clearly a bug. 



The IllegalArgumentException is correct behavior, however the error message
is misleading. That should be fixed.
