I have the same issue. I am think the problem in "re2c".
Generated file contain unnecessary lines like 23142 - 23144.

Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/datetime.construct
---

Even if it's a misspelling of the documented date format, an additional character added to the
end of 'midnight' (e.g. 'midnighty' or 'midnighta') is accepted by the
DateTime constructor. Longer terms (like 'midnightyyyy') are not accepted and throw an
Exception like expected.

Test script:
---------------
try {
    new DateTime('midnighty');
    return 'this might never be returned, bug found';
}catch(Exception $e){
    return 'bug fixed';
}
