https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=29546

            Bug ID: 29546
           Summary: Out-of-range date values
           Product: XPath / XQuery / XSLT
           Version: Candidate Recommendation
          Hardware: PC
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: XQuery 3 & XPath 3 Test Suite

  Target Milestone: ---

F+O states clearly that processors are only required to support dates with
years in the range 0001-9999, yet there are many tests that expect a greater
range. Example: prod-CastExpr/CastAs419 [xs:date("-0012-12-03-05:00") cast as
xs:date].

I think that such tests should have an alternative result of FODT0001.

In the case of the corresponding Castable tests, I think a processor that does
not support the required range of values is expected to return false. This
means that for a test such as CastableAs419 [xs:date("-0012-12-03-05:00")
castable as xs:date], both true and false are acceptable results.
