Yes please.  I think that the date ought to reflect the point at which the 
patch was applied to the (branch/mainline) sources, not the time at which the 
patch was actually developed.  This makes it easier for someone to use CVS's -D 
command line option to isolate the patch should they need to locate it.

Cheers
