Consider this BCE date:
-0001-12-29
If I format this using the "AD" (Gregorian) calendar, like this:
I get an invalid date:
0000-12-29
There is no year zero in the Gregorian calendar. I get the same results using OS (Julian). What am I doing wrong here? The ISO calendar does have a year zero. If I include the E (Era) component in the picture string, I do get "BC", but I don't see why the correct negative-one year is being changed to an incorrect zero-year.
This is using Saxon 9.4 (the one distributed with Oxygen 15.2).
