Follow-up Comment #24:

I pushed another patch adding the warning to the default branch here:
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/e9bfb92dab01

With it the output for some examples is:

>> datenum('2015-03-31 0:00','YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM')

warning: datevec: Format specifiers for dates should be lower case, format
specifiers for time should be upper case.  Possible issue with 'm' (month) and
'M' (minutes)?
warning: called from
    datevec>__date_vfmt2sfmt__ at line 212 column 5
    datevec at line 144 column 44
    datenum at line 119 column 46

error: datevec: multiple minute specifiers in YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM
error: called from
    datevec>__date_vfmt2sfmt__ at line 268 column 5
    datevec at line 144 column 44
    datenum at line 119 column 46
>> datenum('2015-03-31','YYYY-MM-DD')

warning: datevec: Format specifiers for dates should be lower case, format
