Description

General Description: A bug in Unix Core Server can cause missing periodic reports under certain
circumstances.

Detailed Description: When the Unix Core Server is configured with WEEKLY_REPORT_WAIT_DAYS, it may
not work if the period to be reported on is in the previous year. It can only happen in the
beginning of January. This patch has a fix for Server.pm to solve this problem.
