hwclock allows to use a logical format!

e.g. here is a quote from hwclock manpage:

     --date=3Ddate_string
              You  need this option if you specify the --set or --predict f=
unctions, otherwise
              it is ignored.  It specifies the time to which to set the Har=
dware Clock, or the
              time  for which to predict the Hardware Clock reading.  The v=
alue of this option
              is an argument to the date(1) program.  For example:

                  hwclock --set --date=3D"2011-08-14 16:45:05"

The problem is that date(1) program allows to use TOO MANY formats (both lo=
gical and illogical).
We have to select only one format!
