Market Export Files Format Changed - Is this a bug?

I noticed that the new Market Export Text Files have changed since the patch.

The issue dates now have a NULL char for every number.

Before it used to be 2011-12-01 14:34:23 but now it's 2NULL0NULL1NULL1NULL etc.

Is this supposed to be like this, or it's a bug?

If it's a bug I would appreciate if it was corrected, if not why did it change?

Hmm I see what you mean. Yes, that'd be a bug - have you bug reported it?

Extra weird how it's only some of the fields are NUL character separated.

In the patch notes for Crucible in the Miscellaneous section it said:

- A text issue with the market export documents has been fixed.

I assumed it was what I had reported but the bug is still there.
