date_format() expects parameter 1 to be DateTime [#232201]

I am receiving the following errors on nodes where I have included a Viewfield (Views Reference). The views I am referencing do not include any date fields. The views work fine otherwise. It is just when these views are pulled into a node as a views reference that I receive these errors consistently.

I can't replicate this with the latest code, but adding the patch in http://drupal.org/node/232366 would ensure there's no way to get that message, so I'm adding that in.

@sonicthoughts, there is no patch to try, that patch got committed. I'm committing a number of other small fixes today that could impact this. If you still get this message after updating to the latest code with today's changes, open a new issue with details about exactly where and how you got this message.
