Hello,
After 7 years of bug submission I still don't get familiar with that 
awful bug tracker.

In a spreadsheet with global English(US) locale setting
=VALUE("March/8/2010") fails but
=VALUE("March8/2010") succeeds.

With English(UK) the following strings fail to convert:
8/March/2010
8March/2010
March/8/2010
however March8/2010 does.

This conversion error affects the Basic language too and possibly other 
components.

Why is there no language group for the English locale? Do the developers 
do this job?

Greetings,
Andreas
