If that's the part you suspect is failing, then you should be able
to confirm that by running htdig -vvv.  Look for the messages where
it outputs the Last-Modified header, and then says something like
"Converted ... to ...", which shows the original and regenerated date
string after parsing.  If the second one is wrong, then you are right in
that the problem is somewhere in the parsing.  In that case, try adding
trace prints in the parsedate() function in htdig/Document.cc (minimal
programming skills required, just look at how other debug output is done).

If the second date string is fine, it could be a problem related to
refetching this info from the database, or some memory leak somewhere.
I thought you mentioned that an htdump showed correct, non-zero modtimes.
Such a problem would be harder to track down.
