Have noticed the date format problem too (2 days ago when trying to
manipulate datetime data). However, date formatting is also reported as
being screwed in Calc, so maybe a larger problem than just with Base.

Haven't tried this yet, but will try and reproduce. Have you opened a
bug issue for it ?
