JDBC date problem

I'm having a problem with dates in the JDBC driver. They are being mangled
when they come through from the database, here are some examples:

> Postgres:            Java:
> 2000-12-20 16:11:00+11    Nov 20 16:00:00 EST 2000

(looks like it's pulling the month from the timezone or minute field?)

It gets worse ;)

> Postgres:            Java:
> 2001-01-03 17:35:00+11    Nov 03 17:00:00 EST 2003

(again, month comes from the timezone field, but 2004?! ;))

And worse still...

> Postgres:            Java:
> 2001-01-02 18:41:00+11    May 02 17:00:00 EST 2004

(now I'm not really sure where anything came from here, besides the day -
every other number seems wrong?)

Some raw data:
Postgres:             Java:
2000-12-20 16:11:00+11 | 2000-11-20 16:00:00
2001-01-02 18:41:00+11 | 2004-05-02 17:00:00
2001-01-03 17:35:00+11 | 2003-11-03 17:00:00
2000-12-20 15:00:00+11 | 1999-12-20 15:00:00
2001-01-04 19:00:00+11 | 2000-12-04 19:00:00
2001-01-09 11:00:00+11 | 2000-12-09 11:00:00

Any ideas? This is a real stumper and I need to find a solution asap! I'm
using a JDBC driver I built from CVS no more than a month ago.
