    Description

      With Qt 5.15.0 or Qt 6.0.0 on macOS 11.2 Big Sur, these conversions yield invalid dates:

      qDebug() << QDate::fromString("1978-04-02", "yyyy-MM-dd");
      qDebug() << QDate::fromString("02-04-1978", "dd-MM-yyyy");
      

      This behaviour occurs for at least three other dates, i.e.,  1977-03-27, 1978-04-02, 1979-04-01, 1980-03-30. This can be checked with the following code (compilable example attached):

      QString format("yyyy-MM-dd");
      for (int year=1930; year <= 2030; ++year)
      {
      	QDate date(year,1,1);
      	while (date != QDate(year+1,1,1))
      	{
      		QString str = date.toString(format);
      		QDate converted = QDate::fromString(str, format);
      		if (converted != date)
      			qDebug() << date << converted;
      		date = date.addDays(1);
      	}
      }
