Comment:

 I think the US locale is necessary, because we're parsing Apache's
 directory listing which are, by default, using the US locale to format
 dates.  I looked around but didn't find a way to change the locale and
 then gave up.  I added a test case for non-US locale.

 Please review [https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/karsten/metrics-
 lib.git/log/?h=task-17033 branch task-17033 in my public repository].
