Why do you think date(1) and time(1) are synonymous. Check the man-pages.

Under which circumstances is that the output of the time command anyway? By itself it should print nothing more than:

Code:
  0m0.00s user     0m0.00s system
when it's the shell builtin, or nothing at all when it's /usr/bin/time.
