+# Though the primary use of Date::Manip::Recur is the specification of
+# recurring events, it provides a concise description of single events,
+# too.  In the context of this task it is "the n-th occurrence of a
+# specific weekday in a given year and month".  There is one such event
+# at most, where we pick the day of month from, if it exists.
