Date conversion errors

[Arjohn Kampman]

Hi all,

I've collected the various "Error converting date" errors from our logs
and categorized them. I have found four date patterns that seem to occur
frequently:

Acrobat Distiller 1.0.2 for Macintosh:
  Fri, Apr 10, 1998

ECMP5:
  Wednesday January 3, 2001 10:02:13

GNU Ghostscript 7.0.7:
  Thu Feb  5 23:23:54 UTC 2009

Acrobat Net Distiller 1.0 for Windows
  Monday, May 16, 1994 at 3:39PM

A patch to add support for these formats is attached. Can this be
integrated into pdfbox?

Regards,
Arjohn
