Yes and yes. The range rejection in the previous code only allowed an
invalid date to be detected earlier than it would have otherwise. It is
the responsibility of the code following it to determine the validity of
the date we construct here.

Some very minimal checking could be put into place, but it would just be
a small subset of the full checking that occurs later on, so it seemed
better to leave all that logic in one place.
