It only works if your're using the english default locale. If you're using another locale, please do this:

{% load i18n %} first and then
<pubDate>{% language 'en' %}{{ item.pubdate|date:"D, d M Y H:i:s O" }}{% endlanguage %}</pubDate>

Bonus:

<pubDate>{% language 'en' %}{{ item.pubdate|date:"r" }}{% endlanguage %}</pubDate> also works.
