Thanks for the input. The reason for no modules is, no modules other then what is currently installed in the default installation can be used, nor can any modules be installed (firewall and admin restrictions).

Its one of the more cumbersome tasks I'm working on, and I need to overcome the lack of modules here using what's available. timelocal appears to provide the easiest way of doing this, and is part of the standard installation.

I will take the leap year into account. Thanks for pointing that out!

Can I assume timelocal will handle the leap year correctly here?
my $_next_month = timelocal(0, 0, 0, 1, $_month % 12, $_next_year);
my $_last_day = (localtime($_next_month - 86400))[3];
