You sure you just need to check for FMT_DAY? IMHO more is needed.

Problem
When using
TO_DATEwithsql_mode='ORACLE', providing duplicate weekday format specifiers (such as'DAY DY') did not throw an error during the format string parsing phase.Solution
Added duplicate format checks for weekday specifiers in
parse_format_string()(insidesql/item_timefunc.cc).Now, inputs like
SELECT TO_DATE('Monday Mon', 'DAY DY') FROM DUAL;correctly fail early and returnERROR 3047 (HY000): Invalid argument error: date format not recognized at DY in function to_date.Reported-by: Elena Stepanova elenastepanova@github
