This is working as I would expect.  Friday, 31st January is the 5th  
Friday of the month. If you are basing a "same weekday every month"  
recurrence on this, than it should only recur on the 5th Friday of a  
month, which doesn't happen again until May.

If, instead, you want it to recur on *the last* Friday of the month,  
than you need to select a "Last Weekday" recurrence, and not "Same  
Weekday".
