Can you also check the .PKT file that is output.  I would be quite
surprised if the .MSG didn't match the .PKT, yet the .PKT came out valid. 
All tobruk is doing is copying the date from one to the other.

It does that the reverse way, too.  There's nowhere that it
"invents" a time - well, there is one situation, but that's with
squish, and the date it uses is 1994-01-01.  And it prints an error message
when it does that, too.
