Sorry for replying out of order but I lost the original post by Frank.

Here is what I use to stop the date being interpreted.  If someone could
fix the wiki that would be great:

$Conf{TarClientCmd} = '/usr/bin/env LC_ALL=C /usr/bin/sudo /root/tarCreate -v 
-f - -C $shareName --totals';
$Conf{TarIncrArgs} = '--newer=$incrDate $fileList+';


Where /root/tarCreate is (different to the wiki):

#!/bin/sh -f

exec /bin/tar -c "$@"
