This patch fixes a problem introduced in 3.1.6's handling of use_doc_date,
which wasn't in the 3.1.5 patches for this feature. The new date parsing
code in 3.1.6 didn't allow a '-' character after the year in the content
attribute of meta date tags, but only allowed white space, which is
obviously not in accordance with the ISO 8601 date format standard.
Apply this patch in your main htdig-3.1.6 source directory using the
command: patch -p0 < this-message-file
