Title:
  date format incorrect for a number of Timezones

Status in tzdata package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Body:

  For a number of locales, for example, TZ=Europe/London, the default
  format of the date command is wrong. At least one other timezone is
  affected: TZ=Africa/Johannesburg has the same bug.

  
       $(TZ=Europe/London;date)
       Wed Jan 18 13:59:33 GMT 2017

  This format is wrong. It should be:

       $(TZ=Europe/London;date)
       Wed 18 Jan 13:59:33 GMT 2017

  In other words, the date format should be:

       date +%a\ %d\ %b\ %H:%M:%S\ %Z\ %Y

  Not, as it currently is:

      date +%a\ %b\ %d\ %H:%M:%S\ %Z\ %Y

    affects ubuntu
