Doh I forgot to add --committer-date-is-author-date to the rebase
command line in that test. It passes with that added - how
embarrassing. However it does appear that it prefixes the date in
GIT_COMMITTER_DATE with @@ rather than @. I think (though am not
completely certain yet) the reason the test still passes is that
the date has more than 8 digits so although
match_object_header_date() fails because of the '@@'
match_digit() succeeds once the loop in parse_date_basic() strips
that prefix. Jonathan's test date only has 7 digits so
match_digit() does not treat it as a number of seconds since the
start of the epoch and fails to parse it. The fix for the @@ is
quite simple, the date we read from the author script already has
an @ so we don't need to add another. The diff below shows a 
basic fix but we should get rid of datebuf altogether as we don't 
need it. I need a break now I'll try and put a patch together 
later in the week if no one else has by then.

Best Wishes

Phillip
