That's interesting.

I've just tried it on Linux.

$ PS1='$(date)\n\$ '
Tue Aug 30 06:10:48 MSK 2016
$ bash --version
GNU bash, version 4.3.11(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)

(No idea why they ship this ancient version...)
And on Cygwin

$ PS1='$(date)\n\$ '
Tue Aug 30 06:12:38 MSK 2016
$ bash --version
GNU bash, version 4.3.46(6)-release (x86_64-unknown-cygwin)
$ set -o igncr
-bash: command substitution: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `)'
-bash: command substitution: line 1: `date)'

Seems like it is related, at least in some way.
