This seems like a critical breaking change. anybody?

Not sure what the root issue could be, but I do see that Lucee 6 is not handling like Lucee 5 does, so sure feels like a bug.

I would suggest raising the issue on the bug tracker - Lucee Development - Issues - Lucee

filed [LDEV-5093] - Lucee

I tried this at TryCF.com and Lucee6 is the only one that returned FALSE. (I also tried it at try.boxlang.io and it returned FALSE as well.)
writeoutput(isdate('Wed Sep 18 2024 09:20:47 GMT-0700 (Pacific Daylight Time)') );

It works fine in Lucee 6.0.3.1.
