Note that the last test case still passed - that is, it generated a -1.
Here's a revised - more verbose - version of parseMonth() which does work the same under both GCC and Sun C compiler:
#include <stdio.h>
/* MONTH_CODE("Jan/") does not reduce to an integer constant */
#define MONTH_CODE(x) ((((((x[0]<<8)|x[1])<<8)|x[2])<<8)|x[3])
#define MONTH_JAN (((((('J'<<8)|'a')<<8)|'n')<<8)|'/')
#define MONTH_FEB (((((('F'<<8)|'e')<<8)|'b')<<8)|'/')
#define MONTH_MAR (((((('M'<<8)|'a')<<8)|'r')<<8)|'/')
#define MONTH_APR (((((('A'<<8)|'p')<<8)|'r')<<8)|'/')
#define MONTH_MAY (((((('M'<<8)|'a')<<8)|'y')<<8)|'/')
#define MONTH_JUN (((((('J'<<8)|'u')<<8)|'n')<<8)|'/')
#define MONTH_JUL (((((('J'<<8)|'u')<<8)|'l')<<8)|'/')
#define MONTH_AUG (((((('A'<<8)|'u')<<8)|'g')<<8)|'/')
#define MONTH_SEP (((((('S'<<8)|'e')<<8)|'p')<<8)|'/')
#define MONTH_OCT (((((('O'<<8)|'c')<<8)|'t')<<8)|'/')
#define MONTH_NOV (((((('N'<<8)|'o')<<8)|'v')<<8)|'/')
#define MONTH_DEC (((((('D'<<8)|'e')<<8)|'c')<<8)|'/')

I wanted to use MONTH_CODE() but the compilers did not cooperate.
