Anyone experience this weird behaviour with date parsing? Given the following code, it produces a different log output when running in the simulator or on the iPhone!!!

    NSString* test = @"Monday 26 January 2009 3:47:33 pm +0000";
    NSDateFormatter *df = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
    [df setDateFormat: @"EEEE dd MMMM yyyy h:mm:ss a Z"];
    NSLog(@"DATE: %@ to %i", test, [df dateFromString: test]);

This is the NSLog output on the iphone:
2009-03-04 22:08:49.645 Test[2875:20b] DATE: Monday 26 January 2009 3:47:33 pm +0000 to 0


And this on the simulator:
2009-03-04 22:09:05.095 Test[68041:20b] DATE: Monday 26 January 2009 3:47:33 pm +0000 to 5432224
It seems that if you have your Regional settings to Chinese the date is not parsed. What is the proper way to parse an "English" formatted date?

Thanks,
Jacob
