I found that the date in the "generated by" string is truncated (the
year doesn't possess last letter). So I replaced chop by chomp.

I also sometimes run kdoc on NT and VMS. They dislike `uname -n` and
'whoami`. Therefore the following is acceptable for me (as part of BEGIN
in kdocCxxHtml.pm):

        eval { 
          use Sys::Hostname;
          $host = hostname();
          chomp $host;
        };
        eval { 
          $who = `whoami`;	
          chomp $who; 
        };
        $now = localtime;	
        chomp $now; 
        $gentext = "$who\@$host, $now.";

1) whoami can fail but then just $who will be empty
2) hostname is made more portable, even that can fail but mor rarely and
- again - then just $host will be empty
3) localtime does no longer loose last digit
