I stumbled onto this while searching for an answer. I'm using PHP v7.2.33 and am seeing this
error.

echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime('first Thursday October 2020')); echo
"<br>";
echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime('first Friday October 2020')); echo
"<br>";

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

I merged this last weekend, so closing.

Derick, this bug has obviously been fixed in PHP_5_2. As it has been 
a bugfix why isn't it committed to PHP_5_2?!

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?
