Derick, feedback was given..

Confirmed it broken in 5.2.7-dev as well.

Since it appears to be fixed in 5.3-alpha3-dev, is there any chance
this fix can be backported?

I had second thoughts about the "timestamp" passed into strtotime(), so
I tried to create the date in a slightly different way but it failed
never the less.

I can also confirm this on 5.2.6_2 on FreeBSD.

Additional code:

Works:
<?php
// 2008-12-02
echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime('first Tuesday December 2008'));
?>

Does not:
<?php
// 2008-12-08
echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime('first Monday December 2008'));
?>

Sorry to re-open, I found the same bug on:
PHP Version 5.2.6-pl6-gentoo

Some code to reproduce:
<?php
echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime('first Monday', mktime(0, 0, 0, 12, 1,
2008)));
?>

Shows 2008-12-08, while indeed the first Monday in December is
2008-12-01.
