Erik Cederstrand <e...@cederstrand.dk> added the comment:

I would like to point out that http://bugs.python.org/issue12006 provides a 
solution (including patches) based on %G%, V and %u directives for use in 
strptime()/strftime(). These directives are defined in (FreeBSD) libc, and PHP 
has them, too.

I think the strptime approach is a more elegant and standardized way of 
creating dates from exotic values.
