Hi,

I can't do on cygwin 1.5.25 : 
$ touch -t 201103270200 file 
touch: format de date invalide `201103270200' 

nor this equivalent : $touch -t 03270200 file

It's very surprising , but ... 
If I change 27 for 28 it's OK - idem if i change 2011 by 2010... 

Globally, it's working on 99.99% of cases. 

More surprising, the same problem exists on ubuntu 10.10. !!! 
touch: invalid date format `201103270200' 

Some patterns are only concerned! 

I am disapointed to raise such problem after thousands and thousands uses of this statement.
