 Other cultures might have got broken as well. For this particular
 case, there is another matching pattern M/d/yyyy h:mm:ss in en-GB
 DateTimeFormat (try new CultureInfo
 ("en-GB").DateTimeFormat.GetAllDateTimePatterns()). For such cultures
 that do not have conflicting date time patterns wouldn't have been
 affected.

+I really do think that the problem is in locale-builder.
+
+If you look at the output from [1], you'll see that the pattern 
+MM/dd/yyyy (from supp/en.xml) appears /before/ dd/MM/yyyy (from 
+locales/en_GB.xml).  This is obviously incorrect as DateParse.Parse 
+will match the first pattern (from supp/en.xml) before the correct 
+pattern (from locales/en_GB.xml).
