New description:

 Using WP 3.3.2, the following statement worked perfectly:


 {{{
 <?php
 $args = array( 'numberposts' => '3', 'post_status' => 'publish' );
 $recent_posts = wp_get_recent_posts( $args );
 foreach( $recent_posts as $recent ){
 echo '<li id="date"><a href="' . get_permalink($recent["ID"]) . '"
 title="'.esc_attr($recent["post_title"]).'" >' .  get_the_date('M d') .
 '</a></li><li><a href="' . get_permalink($recent["ID"]) . '"
 title="'.esc_attr($recent["post_title"]).'" >' .
 $recent["post_title"].'</a> -
 '.esc_attr($recent["post_excerpt"]).'</li><li id="breaker"></li>';
 }
 ?>
 }}}


 However, since upgrading to 3.4 -- and subsequently to 3.4.1 -- the output
 contains the date on which the list appears vs. the individual post dates.
 For example,

 Apr 13 - Post Title - Post Summary
 Apr 13 - Post Title - Post Summary
 Apr 13 - Post Title - Post Summary

 vs.

 Jun 13 - Post Title - Post Summary
 May 10 - Post Title - Post Summary
 Mar 01 - Post Title - Post Summary
