AIXFTPEntryParser

[steve cohen <sc...@javactivity.org>]

In looking over the source to AIXFTPEntryParser, I see the following comment, 
apparently from the author, (bretts@bml.uk.com):

 * This class is based on UnixFTPEntryParser with some small changes, namely
 * the day and month fields being transposed.

I seriously must wonder if this is a distinction between AIX and Unix or 
whether instead what we are looking at is not a locale-specific variation in 
how dates are rendered.  Might there be unix ftp systems in European locales 
that show the dates as dd-MM-yyyy and AIX systems in the US that use 
MM-dd-yyyy?  If that is the case, then the naming of these classes is 
problematical.
