I don't think $Date$ is being expanded, and it isn't a problem per se;
it's quite intentional.  The point is so that contributed sources with
'$Date$' in them maintain *their* revision date, not ours.  Using
$Date$ still won't fix the condition I'm trying to solve; namely,
multiple RCS keywords in a file.
