    This would be highly unlikely as it would break a lot of
compatibility with scripts already written to do post-processing
of logs.  I tangled with this personally, and lost, a year or
so ago when I proposed changing the file-name style to conform
to ISO datestamps instead of US-style stamps.

    We cannot know how many post-processing scripts are in use, and
therein lies the problem.  We don't want to break somebody else's
process(es) to fix our own local pain.

    Cheers!
