@Julien Manici: On the calendar gadget? I can select october 14th 2007 on my system calendar too, but not in the calendar gadget.

looking at your screenshot, I've just noticed that there was two 13th day on october 2007 in your gadget, not in mine...
that's pretty odd...

Nope, it's a problem with some GMT zones. Day with problems may vary, for instance could be in November 3:

I don't know the Zone<->Wrong days relation, but its actually a buggy calendar.
