I too have had a problem with Xlog's date format. I exported a log (TSV)
and opened it using LibreOffice Calc --- it looked fine, but LibreOffice
would not change the Date format (from Xlog's "19 Jul 2013" to
"2013-07-19", which I use elsewhere). It apparently did not recognize
Xlog's format as a date.

My workaround, derived from an OpenOffice search, was to use
Find/Replace to change every " Jul " to ".7." (for example), then change
my Language Setting to German! LibreOffice then recognized "19.7.2013"
as a date, and I was able to change the cells' format to "2013-07-19"...
then revert back to English!
