Internal(format.POSIXlt(as.POSIXlt(Sys.time()), "%Y%m%d%q", F))
Linux R-2.2.1 returns "20060613%q".
Windows R-2.3.1 returns "20060613" dropping the "%q".
The documentation says "Any character in the format string other that the '%'
escape sequences is interpreted literally". Since "%q" is nowhere listed as an
escape sequence, the Windows R-2.3.1 result appears to be incorrect.
The Unix 'date' command gives the same result as Linux R-2.2.1.
