Please don't.  The rfc822 module is deprecated from Python 2.3 in favour of
the email package.  This bug does not exist in the email package (at least
in Python 2.4).  For example:

>>> import rfc822
>>> rfc822.parsedate_tz("Tue, 26 Jul 2005 13:14:27 GMT +0200")
(2005, 7, 26, 13, 14, 27, 0, 1, 0, 0)
>>> rfc822.parsedate_tz("Tue,26 Jul 2005 13:14:27 GMT +0200")

>>> import email
>>> import email.Utils
>>> email.Utils.parsedate_tz("Tue, 26 Jul 2005 13:14:27 GMT +0200")
(2005, 7, 26, 13, 14, 27, 0, 1, 0, 0)
>>> email.Utils.parsedate_tz("Tue,26 Jul 2005 13:14:27 GMT +0200")
(2005, 7, 26, 13, 14, 27, 0, 1, 0, 0)
