   Satish,

     I don't want the dates being put in when the tarball is created (for snapshots or anywhere else) I want them to go in when each manual page is made during the make docs process. 

     The reason is that we ALWAYS want dates in the manual pages, not just sometime in them (those without the dates will be the hardest to eradicate from the web).
