The point was let a user customize the format times are shown to them
(even when using time washing operations like W T l, W T o, W T u, etc).
This is totally independent of the format which gnus to send out mail,
which would not be changed.  The problem is that it's currently hard to
show in other time formats (including the one you prefer) for times in
time zones other than your local one.

the suggested modification allows for this.  hopefully it'll appear in
xemacs 20.3.
