 When updating the Recent Posts widget, it can cause an undefined index
 notice:
 {{{
 [14-Jun-2013 04:56:40] Backtrace from warning 'Undefined index: show_date'
 at /www/wp-includes/default-widgets.php 596:
         /www/wp-includes/widgets.php 232 calling update()
         <unknown file> <unknown line> calling update_callback()
         /www/wp-admin/includes/ajax-actions.php 1562 calling

         <unknown file> <unknown line> calling wp_ajax_save_widget()

         /www/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php 72 calling do_action()
 }}}

 To fix, line 599 (based on current trunk):
 {{{
 $instance['show_date'] = (bool) $new_instance['show_date'];
 }}}
 would need to be replaced with:
 {{{
 $instance['show_date'] = isset( $new_instance['show_date'] ) ? (bool)
 $new_instance['show_date'] : false;
 }}}

 Patch file included.

 Hope this helps ;-)
