Ektron 8.0.1: Fixing New Handlers Multilingual Bug

I recently had to upgrade an multilingual Ektron project and all went relatively well.  However, whilst debugging the site – I noticed that we were getting a lot of Formatting Exceptions when running the site in French (fr-FR) but not English (en-GB).  I tracked this down to the new ‘workarea/csslib/ektronCss.ashx’ and ‘workarea/java/ektronJs.ashx’ handlers and in particular around the mechanism for parsing the ‘If-Modified-Since’ header:

   1: public class ektronCss : IHttpHandler {

   2:     

   3:     public void ProcessRequest (HttpContext context) 

   4:     {

   5:         // Ommitted for clarity until line 19    

   6:         CultureInfo provider = CultureInfo.InvariantCulture;

   7:         DateTime lastUpdate = String.IsNullOrEmpty(context.Request.Headers.Get("If-Modified-Since")) 

   8:             ? DateTime.MinValue 

   9:             : DateTime.ParseExact(context.Request.Headers.Get("If-Modified-Since"), "ddd, dd MMM yyyy HH':'mm':'ss 'GMT'", null);

  10:         // Ommitted for Brevity        

  11:     }

  12: }

This can easily be fixed by substituting the null argument for the DateTime.ParseExact method for the provider variable:

   1: public class ektronCss : IHttpHandler {

   2:     

   3:     public void ProcessRequest (HttpContext context) 

   4:     {

   5:         // Ommitted for clarity until line 19    

   6:         CultureInfo provider = CultureInfo.InvariantCulture;

   7:         DateTime lastUpdate = String.IsNullOrEmpty(context.Request.Headers.Get("If-Modified-Since")) 

   8:             ? DateTime.MinValue 

   9:             : DateTime.ParseExact(context.Request.Headers.Get("If-Modified-Since"), "ddd, dd MMM yyyy HH':'mm':'ss 'GMT'", provider);

  10:         // Ommitted for Brevity        

  11:     }

  12: }

And is provider used anywhere else in either handler?  It is not.
