The date picker forces it or a length to be entered. How do you get this situation without messing with data in the back end?

Could you just confirm test steps more explicitly, assuming fresh install with one superlibrarian created and defaults all installed?

[PASSED QA] Bug 13109 - Serial failure for received and general viewing.

to test...

1/ attempt to view a subscription-detail that has a NULL value for either it's 'startdate' or 'enddate'

  an example url would be...
  http://koha-admin.foo.org/cgi-bin/koha/serials/subscription-detail.pl?subscriptionid=1

  observe error...
  'Date::Calc::PP::Delta_Days(): Usage: Date::Calc::Delta_Days($year1,$month1,$day1,$year2,$month2,$day2) at /your/koha/C4/Serials.pm line 2325'

2/ apply patch
3/ repeat step 1/
   observe that detail page displays OK

I confirm the issue if startdate is null (can exist with old data,
before the js check on the form).
Amended patch: Remove trailing space char and the link to the bz number
(can be found using git log).
