I think that's going too far — you can use NSDateFormatter for this, as long as
you reset the calendar and locale:
formatter.calendar = [[[NSCalendar alloc]
initWithCalendarIdentifier:NSGregorianCalendar] autorelease];
formatter.locale = [[[NSLocale alloc]
initWithLocaleIdentifier:@"en_US"] autorelease];
(I'm not sure whether [NSLocale systemLocale] would work as well; I'm copying
this from some working code of mine that generates ISO-8601 date strings.)
