At some point (recently?) the way VarGMTIME (and related macros) expands $month has changed. In the past and as stated in docs, $month expanded to the 2-digit month number. However, now it appears to expand to the full month name while $mo expands to the 2-digit month and $mon expands to the abreviated month name. I can seem to find any existing task that touches on this so am registering it.

Suggested revision to VarGMTIME:
$mo 2 digit month 12
$mon short name of month Dec
$month full name of month December

As an aside, SpreadSheetPlugin ($FORMATTIME) expands both $mo and $month as the 2-digit month and does not include $mo in the documentation. Perhaps this should be updated also and revise rendering of $month to be consistent with VarGMTIME.

Might be a sideeffect of DateManipPlugin being installed?

Tested and confirmed you are correct. Should have considered that before posting. Marking as "No action required".
