Not quite, but just this week I ran across a French birth record dated
29 Fev in a non-leap year, which is the same problem. I just made a
note of it, but luckily the record was the day after the actual birth
so, I didn't have to determine what to do with the software.
Legacy lets you enter 30 Feb as a birth date, but considers it invalid
(If you enter a valid date without capitals, it corrects the
capitalization and abbreviates the month (and translates the French
month-name to English if I didn't do it myself), but doesn't do so
with invalid dates, so "30 feb 1829" continues to have a lower case F
after entry.
