No. Though std.date will be replaced with std.datetime (soon?), which might have what is needed.

I was doing something where I would grab dates from many formats, and the strategy I used, attempt a conversion, if that failed append current year. (though I wasn't concerned with time as you are) (I wanted to find out if the date had already past so assuming the most current information was the best option.)
