Hi Andrew,

I extended your patch to also cover the other uses of date. Please check if 
this look reasonable as I'm not an expert in makefiles. It seems to DTRT in 
the cases I tested.

What I changed compared to your patch:

* Add LC_ALL=C to all date commands. This was also missing in my original 
patch, but I think it's a good thing to do and XEN_BUILD_{DATE,TIME} already 
do it.

* Change the quoting to allow calling the date command without any additional 
(formatting) arguments.

* Add an include of Config.mk to tools/firmware/vgabios/Makefile and moved the 
definition of XEN_BUILD_{DATE,TIME} further down in xen/Makefile to have the 
newly defined date wrapper available.

Does this look reasonable or are there parts that should be done differently?

Thanks,
Maxi
