Hi,
There is a bug in the date::isLeap member function. The impact though is
minimal:

A year is a leap year if it is dividable by 4, EXCEPT if it is dividable by
100. Additionally, if it is dividable by 400, it is a leap year again.

Thus 1900 and 2100 are not leap years.

Although this won't possibly have an impact on any calculation, they are
things people (users) love to check out.
