Nginx Equivalent to LAST_MODIFIED variable in Apache SSI

I am working on transitioning my web sites from Apache to Nginx. In
doing
so, I came across an issue. Under Apache, I was able to include the
timestamp when a page was last modified through the use of the following
statement,

This document last modified

When I made the conversion to Nginx, this statement returns the
following

This document last modified (none)

This was expected as the SSI module documentation states the variable
will
display “none” if no value is set. Reading the documentation, it
doesn’t
appear there is a builtin variable which is the equivalent of Apache’s
LAST_MODIFIED. I did a google search to attempt to find a solution to
generate the timestamp into a new variable. Unfortunately the only item
I
found was this thread,

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.nginx.english/3336/match=last+modified+ssi

Can someone please point me in the proper direction to create an
equivalent to Apache’s LAST_MODIFIED variable?

Thanks,
Patrick

After doing some further research, found out LAST_MODIFIED is on the
todo list according to a comment in the stable and development version
of ngx_http_variable.c. My apologies for not checking the source code
first. Is there a timeline/roadmap when this feature might be included?

Thanks,
Patrick
