Mikhail Teterin d711d8fdee The previous commit, which was supposed to simply update the
tcllib dependency, accidentally introduced reference to unfinished
work on the generation of locale-independent dates for HTTP-headers.

Finish (and unbreak) this work and allow the server to run in
non-English/ASCII locales. Changes submitted to the (dormant) vendor.

/*
* Produce time-stamp in the format suitable for HTTP's Date headers:
*
* Date: Sun, 05 Nov 2006 16:18:01 GMT
* and the Set-Cookie headers:
* Set-Cookie: .......; expires=Sun, 17-Jan-2038 19:14:07 GMT
*
* Although this can, of course, be done from TCL directly ([clock format]),
* Tcl's method breaks, when the server is running in non-C locale.
* Regardless of the locale, the Date-header must be in English and
* this function takes care of that. Plus it is over 4 times faster...
* Neither asctime() nor gmtime() would not work, because they
* don't put a coma after the name of the weekday...
*
* Each command takes an optional argument specifying the date (in seconds
* since epoch). If not specified, httpdate assumes the current date, and
* the cookiedate -- a week from now.
*
* Written by Mikhail T. <mi+httpdate@aldan.algebra.com> in search of glory
* but without ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES OR APPLICABILITIES FOR ANY PURPOSES.
* Released into the wild under BSD license.
*
* Tested on FreeBSD-6.2 against Tcl-8.4. November 2006...

* Using this method of copying short strings as integers instead of
* relying on memcpy cuts the execution time from 3.53 microseconds to
* 3.26 microseconds (or 8%) on my Opteron 275. Plus it is fun...
* It is only safe, because the positions of both the month's name and
* the weekday happen to be at 4-byte allignment, so the code is safe
* from SIGBUS on all (?) known platforms...
