There was a short discussion a month or so ago about the hyperarch 'mbox'
archives having the wrong kind of date in the 'From ' lines... 'unixfrom'
lines should have a very specific dateformat, namely that which 'time.ctime'
returns. The following patch fixes Archiver/HyperArch.py. However, I'm not
entirely sure if it will work correctly in other locales... can anyone test
that, and propose a locale-independant way of producing this format ?

Grtz,
