The directory listings that Wget downloads and parses aren't really intended to be machine parseable, but Wget can cope as long as they are in one of a number of well-known formats and the dates are presented in the default "C" locale (or English). Newer FTP servers have facilities for getting listings in a machine-parsable form. A future version of Wget might support them.
