The date and time info from the portal log file

I Perl-ed it into:    Mon, 3 Aug 2006 3:45:00 GMT
which is one of the formats which  str2time is supposed to parse.

As a check, I immediately round-tripped this through time2str,
and got an inconsistent day-of-week:  Thu Aug 3 03:45:00 GMT 2006

What have I missed???  Do I have fighting use-statements?

You have bad input data. My calendar shows that August 3rd, 2006 was a Thursday, not a Monday.
