Package: w3m-el
Version: 1.3.3-2
Severity: normal

(Have a look in w3m.el at where w3m-time-parse-string is declared and
this will make more sense)

w3m.el chooses the wrong implementation of w3m-time-parse-string,
since the test fails.  The test fails due to a misunderstanding over
the timezone "EST", but otherwise the original version is good (the
later version doesn't work at all).

Once the broken (later) w3m-time-parse-string function is chosen,
parsing a cookie timestring returns lots of nils and the cookies are
declared expired and ignored.


I've been using this in my init.el, and it seems to be working fine:

;; bugfix. w3m.el decides this isn't any good (and installs a worse
;; version) because timezone-fix-time thinks "EST" is American EST,
;; not Australian EST.. other than that (unavoidable
;; misunderstanding), this version is good
(eval-after-load "w3m"
  (setq w3m-time-parse-string 
	(function
	 (lambda (string)
	   "Parse the time-string STRING and return its time as Emacs style."
	   (ignore-errors
	     (let ((x (timezone-fix-time string nil nil)))
	       (encode-time (aref x 5) (aref x 4) (aref x 3)
			    (aref x 2) (aref x 1) (aref x 0)
			    (aref x 6))))))))


I presume the two versions are an emacs vs xemacs thing, I haven't
checked on FSF emacs.  A possible solution would be to always choose
the earlier version when running on xemacs (and perhaps have a
versioned conflict on some xemacs.deb if we find it didn't work at
some point in the past), or to use "+1100" style timezones during the
test, which are immune to such "EST" ambiguities.
