I would like to point out that http://bugs.python.org/issue12006 provides a solution (including patches) based on %G%, V and %u directives for use in strptime()/strftime(). These directives are defined in (FreeBSD) libc, and PHP has them, too.

I think the strptime approach is a more elegant and standardized way of creating dates from exotic values.
