DateCalc behaviour has changed, use a different mode.

Somewhere between Date::Manip v6.0 and v6.32 the behaviour for DateCalc has
changed, so that now a DateCalc will keep on increasing the hours field,
without rolling over the days field.

Switching to an approximate mode for DateCalc which resolves this.
