Some additional issues to this:

Jerson's fix does fix the bug he mentions, though another test fails
in DurationFormatUtils;

testISODurationFormat:
        // test fixture from example in
http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#duration
        cal.set(1, 1, 3, 10, 30, 0);
        cal.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 0);
        text = DurationFormatUtils.ISO_EXTENDED_FORMAT.format(cal);
        assertEquals("P1Y2M3DT10H30M0.0S", text);

This is, I believe, a bug in our pattern:

ISO_EXTENDED_FORMAT_PATTERN = "'P'yyyy'Y'M'M'd'DT'H'H'm'M's.S'S'"

should be:

ISO_EXTENDED_FORMAT_PATTERN = "'P'y'Y'M'M'd'DT'H'H'm'M's.S'S'"

Additionally, there seem to be some big problems in FastDateFormat in
the date field. These are regardless of Jerson's fix, though I include
it in the output:

calendar.set(1,2,2) formats as 0001/03/61
calendar.set(999,11,30) formats as 0999/12/364
calendar.set(999,11,31) formats as 0999/12/365
calendar.set(2004,11,31) formats as 2004/12/366

Possibly I'm missing something important with the class, but it seems
pretty damning.
