You need the most recent version of GDAL/OGR; the NEWS file at:

	http://www.remotesensing.org/gdal/NEWS.html

says:

	OGR 1.3.2 - Overview of Changes
	-------------------------------
	
	OGRFeature:
	 - Added support for OFTDate, OFTTime and OFTDateTime field types. 
	 - Also applied to a few drivers (shapefile, mysql, postgres)

As 1.3.2 has only been out a couple of months, I doubt that you will
be able to get an "official" package from your distribution vendor yet
(the 1.3.2 ebuild for Gentoo is still masked on all platforms).
