[Quilt-dev] [PATCH 3/4] quilt mail: force locale to C when generating date for the From header

[Raphaël Hertzog]

From: Simon Horman <address@hidden>

Without this the From header will end up with a date according
to the current locale, which can result in an invalid mbox.
That was at least the case with a japanese locale (ja_JP.UTF-8),
mutt-ng did not accept the mbox.
