java.text.SimpleDateFormat fails to parse 3 letter month 'Sep'

ADDITIONAL SYSTEM INFORMATION :
I have no reason to think this is in any way platform specific, but my system is:
java.version = 16.0.2
javafx.runtime.version = 16+8
os.name = Windows 10
os.arch = amd64
os.version = 10.0

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Until JDK 15, SimpleDateFormat would successfully parse date strings including the month September abbreviated as the 3 letters "Sep".
With JDK 16, this now fails with java.text.ParseException: Unparseable dateIt will parse 
September abbreviated as the 4 letters "Sept", but if the date string comes from third party software, for example the "expires" value in the header data for a cookie from a web browser, JDK 16 now fails where JDK 15 worked.
I have confirmed that this is still broken in JDK 17 & 18 early access versions.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Try to parse a date such as "Sat, 03 Sep 2022 15:42:22 GMT" using SimpleDateFormat("EEE, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss")
