[Zope] mxDateTime unauthorized

[sean.upton@uniontrib.com]

I think I'd agree that mxDateTime is the problem.  One way to approach this
is to have an external method or utility module that imports mxDateTime and
creates a bunch of proxy functions to the various mxDateTime constructors,
like:

import time
#REQUIRES MX DATETIME!!!!
from mx.DateTime import mktime

def getMXDateTimeObject(timeTuple):
	"""Given a time Tuple, Get MX DateTime object for date-calc and
such"""
	obj = mktime(timeTuple)
	return obj

This accomplishes getting mx DateTime objects without module namespace
collision/confusion between the DateTime module in the mx package and the
DateTime module in zope.
