(at least, decimal and date are the ones I've tried)

Retested OK in 3.1-beta1
Problem easily reproduced in 3.0.2

I'm pretty sure this problem has little to do with Decimal and Date validation types, and more to do with the presence of the 'Maximum' value.

The fix was for bug 44710 was svn r643654.
