message-make-date is the only function in message.el that uses
parse-time, so it's best to put the require there.  If you change
message-make-date so that it no longer uses parse-time, you will
probably notice the require and remove it.  Had you put require at the
beginning of the file, you would most likely forget this.  Putting a
require at the beginning of a file is useful if the file uses a
particular feature a lot.
