GeneralizeTime is defined in X.680 and ISO/IEC Internal Standard 8824- 1. Read carefully, it specifies that the date part should be formatted as specified in ISO 8601, as well as the time part, but it doesn't say that the combined value should be constructed as described in ISO 8601. All it says is that the time part should be appended to the date part, and that the combination should optionally get Z or a time zone specification appended to it. No T anywhere. The Perl code needs to be corrected.
