I would vote for a common format, it's easier to read. I would prefer the
standard email notation for the timezone like +0200 or -0800.

What do you think about a Make-rule which modifies version.c with the
ChangeLog CVS revision numbers (gcc/cp/f) as soon as the CVS/Entries dir
structure is detected? I think this will fulfill the need for exact bug
reporting at little cost (especially as soon as Alexandre's reporting
scripts are checked in) and you don't have to maintain anything, CVS and
make do it for you.

Bye,
Franz.
