The info node (elisp) Time Parsing suggests that the string "1998-09-12T12:21:54-0200" should be of a format that `parse-time-string` can successfully parse. However, trying to do so produces no useful info from parsing (it returns a list of NILs).

I fixed the code so that it matches the documentation by installing the attached patches into Emacs master. The first patch is the fix, the second is merely refactoring.
