I'm wondering whether I was right to remove this _() for this string
as an "obvious bug", or whether I missed the whole point?

If it is to be reversed, please add clear translation guidelines.

Argh. Done in r26156.

I tried to improve the translation comment slightly so that other 
translators may not miss the point as I have.

Browsing through strftime documentation, maybe "%x" (preferred date 
representation in locale) could have been an option, although not 
abbreviated.

Sorry for the flip-flop.

This string was translatable. Please revert r26129.
In some languages the order of date parts is different than %d %b %Y.
