[Reproducible] with  "LibreOffice 3.6.6.2 release " German UI/ German Locale [Build-ID: f969faf] {pull date 2013-04-03} on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit)

Steps how to reproduce:
0. Open new Calc document from LibO Start Center
1. Select all cells
2. Menu 'Format -> Cells -> Date -> 1999-12-31'
3. A1: 2012-10-31
4. Select A1:A20, menu 'Edit -> fill -> Series -> Down - Date-Month-Increment=1
   <ok>
   Expected: All Cells show last day of month
   Actual: some months skipped

If I start a series with 2012-10-12 I expect to get a series always showing the 12th day of the next month in the next cell. 
That always will work until Day number exceeds 28, what will give wrong results in February, and if exceeds 30, wrong results for all other Months with less than 31 days. It should be expected that if day number of cell before exceeds number of days for next month, the cell should show the last day of the month. But in case of mistake it seems that LibO simply adds 31 days instead of calculating the appropriate day of month.

Already reproducible with Server Installation of "LibreOffice 3.5.1.2 English UI/Locale [Build-ID: dc9775d-05ecbee-0851ad3-1586698-727bf66] on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) 

Still worked fine with 
* Server Installation (own profile) of "LibreOffice 3.4.5 RC1  - WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) German UI [Build ID: OOO340m1 (Build:501)]", so Regression!

I don't like this concept of "assigned to", it doesn't work. Bugs just pile up at a developer until s/he eventually will find some time to work on it, maybe or maybe not, and others looking for bugs think when seeing "assigned" that someone else is already working on it.
