  | Add an XXX reminder to convert at(1) to use parsedate(3) in <util.h>.

If that's intended as an optional facility (at -d ... or something),
then fine, but please don't make parsedate the standard way to input
at dates (just as it isn't the standard way to set the date using date(1),
it is way too fragile and cantankerous for something that should be reliable.
