date: fails to diagnose invalid input
date -d "$(printf '\xb0')" would print 00:00:00 with today's date rather than diagnosing the invalid input. Now it reports this: date: invalid date '\260' * gnulib: Update submodule to latest for fixed parse-datetime.y. * tests/misc/date [invalid-high-bit-set]: New test. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. * bootstrap, tests/init.sh: Also update to latest. Reported by Peter Evans in http://bugs.gnu.org/11843
