I agree. The default format is dd-mm-yyyy, according to the info page for
mtools 3.9.8.

I agree. When using Perl, use Perl. By the way,
MTOOLS_TWENTY_FOUR_HOUR_CLOCK should also be set to be on the safe side.
While testing this change, I have discovered one more problem - long
filenames with spaces were truncated. I have fixed this bug as well.
I'm committing this patch:
