          Issue ID: 20038
           Summary: __DATE__ is in the wrong format for
                    std.datetime.Date.from*
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P1
         Component: dmd
          Assignee: nobody@puremagic.com
          Reporter: jurily@gmail.com

I wanted to reproduce a Webpack feature of not working on Monday. I feel this should be enough:

```
int main(string[]) {
        import std.datetime;
        static assert(Date.fromSimpleString(__DATE__).dayOfWeek !=
DayOfWeek.mon);
        return 0;
}
```

Instead there's an error:

```
$ rdmd scratch.d
/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/../include/d/std/datetime/date.d(7766):
Error: uncaught CTFE exception core.time.TimeException("Invalid string format:
Jul  9 2019"c)
scratch.d(3):        called from here: fromSimpleString("Jul  9 2019")
scratch.d(3):        while evaluating: static
assert(cast(int)fromSimpleString("Jul  9 2019").dayOfWeek() != 1)
Failed: ["/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/ldmd2", "-v", "-o-", "scratch.d",
"-I."]
```
