Modified Files:
        src/lib/libutil: parsedate.3 parsedate.y

Log Message:
parsedate.y:  meaningless KNF of a comment (no code changes)
parsedate.3:  add an item in BUGS noting the weirdness of "next"

The real purpose of this commit is to supply the following message
which should be used for the immediately previous commit, replacing
its commit message (the two are similar, but definitely not the
same).   With thanks to gdt@ for pointing out one of the (many) errors
in the previous message (and noting others I had already seen).

    ----

Make parsedate handle "12 noon" and "12 midnight" (including when the
time given is "12:00" or "12:00:00") - but only for exactly 12 o'clock.
"12:00:01" is am or pm, not noon or midnight.

"12 am" remains as an alias for "12 midnight", and "12 pm" for noon,
though both are strictly (pedanticly) invalid (and meaningless.)

Note that "12 midnight" (or "12 am") means 00:00:00 (ie: midnight at
the start of the day, not at the end.)
