+Summary: DateTime.Parse accepts string containing only year
+
+Mono's DateTime.Parse(string) accepts a date string containing only a 
+year or containing an incompletely time.  MS.NET's DateTime.Parse does
+report a FormatException for these strings.
+
+To reproduce this issue, compile and run the following code:
+
+using System;
+
+public class EntryPoint {
+  public static void Main() {
+    string msg = "Should've resulted in FormatException";		
+	
+    try {
+      DateTime.Parse("1");
+      Console.WriteLine("#1: " + msg);
+    } catch (FormatException) {
+    }
+
+    try {
+      DateTime.Parse("1000");
+      Console.WriteLine("#2: " + msg);
+    } catch (FormatException) {
+    }
+
+    try {
+      DateTime.Parse("8:");
+      Console.WriteLine("#3: " + msg);
+    } catch (FormatException) {
+    }
+  }
+}
+
+Actual result:
+
+#1: Should've resulted in FormatException
+#2: Should've resulted in FormatException
+#3: Should've resulted in FormatException
+
+Expected result:
+
+(no output)
