Bug #43452 has been fixed as of PHP 5.2.7[1], but apparently the
fix only affects week numbers given as proper number[2], but not
as ordinal string[3].

From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.strtotime#refsect1-
function.strtotime-changelog
---

requesting a given occurrence of a given weekday in a month where that weekday 
was 
the first day of the month would incorrectly add one week to the returned 
timestamp.  Although this was reported resolved as of PHP 5.2.7, it still exists 
in PHP 5.3.17.

the first day of the month would incorrectly add one week to the returned 
timestamp.  Although this was reported resolved as of PHP 5.2.7, it still exists 
in PHP 5.3.3.

Maybe update the documentation to reflect the version the bug was actually 
corrected in?



Test script:
---------------
$x = strtotime('Second Monday October 2012');

print date('Y-m-d', $x);


Expected result:
----------------
2012-10-8

Actual result:
--------------
2012-10-15
