+Summary: DateTime.TryParseExact throws System.FormatException.
+
+Description of Problem:
+DateTime.TryParseExact does not work properly. MS .NET parses the string 
+correctly. While Mono throws exception. The localization is English.
+
+using System;
+using System.Globalization;
+
+namespace TryFormatEaxctTest
+{
+    class Program
+    {
+        static void Main (string [] args)
+        {
+            DateTime date;
+
+            // Both lines below throw 
+            // System.FormatException with message "String was not 
+recognized as valid DateTime because the day of week was incorrect."
+
+            DateTime.TryParseExact ("Mon.05.07", "ddd.MM.yy", null, 
+DateTimeStyles.None, out date);
+            DateTime.TryParseExact ("Monday.05.07", "dddd.MM.yy", null, 
+DateTimeStyles.None, out date);
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+Actual Results:
+ Throws an exception.
+
+Expected Results:
+ To parse the sring properly
+
+How often does this happen?
