It seems that the command date used in building  in building 
svnversion.h is outputting the date in the current locale, whereas the C 
compiler is trying to compile it using the C locale. Forcing the LANG 
setting would be a good option, not least because we'd (as anglophones) 
be able to understand the produced dates :-).
