Attempted to fix in 8218496dcc61c587e6aa71f6a631c440367c19de, but didn't work.

Suggested solution for this problem is to make use of altField in datepicker fields.

http://api.jqueryui.com/datepicker/#option-altField

This way config file may contain:

$config['locale']['date_js'] = 'dd-MM-yy';

and the JS will still send us date in a consistent format, which we can parse correctly.

[DarkSide666]

Can you please post here your config values, like:

$config['locale']['date'] = 'd.m.Y';
$config['locale']['time'] = 'H:i:s';
$config['locale']['datetime'] = 'd.m.Y H:i:s';
$config['locale']['date_js'] = 'dd.mm.yy';

Probably we should fix this by using altField (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11522784/how-to-make-jqueryui-datepicker-submit-in-a-different-format-than-what-is-being/13958379#13958379). I have done that in my (unpublished) DateIntervalPicker add-on for 4.2.
