- updated to 1.03
- The set_time_zone() method was not returning the object when caalled with a
name that matched the current zone. Reported by Noel Maddy. RT #84699.

- When a constructor method like new() or today() was called on an object,
you'd get an error message like 'Can't locate object method
"_normalize_nanoseconds" via package "2013-04-15T00:00:00"'. This has been
fixed to provide a sane error message. Patch by Doug Bell.

- When set_time_zone() is called with a name that matches the current time
zone, DateTime now short circuits and avoids a lot of work. Patch by Mark
Stosberg.

- Fixed test failures on older Perls.

- Bumped the version to 1.00. This is mostly because my prior use of both X.YY
and X.YYYY versions causes trouble for some packaging systems. Plus after 10
years it's probably ready to be called 1.00. Requested by Adam. RT #82800.

- The %j specifier for strftime was not zero-padding 1 and 2 digit
numbers. Fixed by Christian Hansen. RT #84310.

- The truncate method was sloppy about validating its "to" parameter, so you
could pass things like "years" or "month whatever anything goes". The method
would accept the parameter but then not actually truncate the object. RT
#84229.

- Previously, if a call to $dt->set_time_zone() failed it would still change
the time zone of the object, leaving it in a broken state. Reported by Bill
Moseley. RT #83940.
