 Date::Parse provides two routines for parsing date strings into time values.

 str2time(DATE [, ZONE])

    str2time parses DATE and returns a unix time value, or undef upon failure.
     ZONE, if given, specifies the timezone to assume when parsing if the date
     string does not specify a timezome.

 strptime(DATE [, ZONE])

    strptime takes the same arguments as str2time but returns an array of values
     ($ss,$mm,$hh,$day,$month,$year,$zone). Elements are only defined if they
     could be extracted from the date string. The $zone element is the timezone
     offset in seconds from GMT. An empty array is returned upon failure.

  perl-TimeDate-getdate.patch: -p1
