Description

The fllowing test demonstrates the behaviour:
--------------------------
import java.util.TimeZone;
import java.util.Date;

class DateToString {
public static void main(String[] args)

{ TimeZone tz = TimeZone.getDefault(); tz.setDefault(tz.getTimeZone("MST")); System.out.println(new Date(104, 2, 13)); }

}
--------------------------
It looks like the problem may be in ICU's SimpleTimeZone pattern processing code.
