I tried that by adding it to the jmeter.bat file (last line):
%JM_START% %JM_LAUNCH% %JVM_ARGS% %ARGS% -jar ApacheJMeter.jar -Dtoday="`date`"
%JMETER_CMD_LINE_ARGS%
The variable is just printed as ${today} when using it as a form parameter and
running a test, though. User defined variables in JMeter work, though.
Can anybody tell me what I did wrong?

Yes, several methods. All rely on functions.
1) Get the date from the OS, and set a property on the command line
with the value, then use one of the property functions to retrieve it.
E.g.
jmeter -Dtoday="`date`"
Then refer to it as ${today}
2) Use the JavaScript function to create a suitable date string, e.g.
${__javaScript(new Date(),Dummy)}
3) Use the BeanShell function to create a suitable date string e.g.
${__BeanShell(new java.util.Date())}
You'll need to adjust the format.
