[ruby-core:78661] [Ruby trunk Bug#13036] Date.parse mishandling spanish months "Abril y Agosto"

Issue #13036 has been updated by Gonzalo Reutter.


## UPDATE: 

I tracked the problem to dates_international.rb (https://gist.github.com/jackrg/2927162)

The problem is solved replacing line 37.

From:

37: month_from = string[/[^\s\d,]+/i] 

To:

37: month_from = string[/[a-z]+/i]

https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/13036#change-62041

* Author: Gonzalo Reutter
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: 
* Target version: 
* ruby -v: 2.3.0
* Backport: 2.1: UNKNOWN, 2.2: UNKNOWN, 2.3: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
### Steps to reproduce
$ irb

2.3.0 :003 > Date.parse("01-Agosto-2016")
 => 01 Dec 2016  
2.3.0 :004 > Date.parse("01-Abril-2016")
 => 01 Dec 2016 

### Expected behavior
2.3.0 :003 > Date.parse("01-Agosto-2016")
 => 01 Aug 2016  
2.3.0 :004 > Date.parse("01-Abril-2016")
 => 01 Apr 2016 

### Actual behavior
"Agosto" is parsed to December
"Abril" is parsed to December.

### System configuration
Ruby 2.3.0

Would much like to fix this myself, should be straight forward, but I'm a hobby developer and have never contributed to a project.
