I suspect that you'll find that all dates before 1970 fail and that all dates after Mon Jan 19 04:14:07 2038 (GMT) also fail. Why are you reporting this as a bug against glibc? That's how time_t works. Search google for "time_t" and "epoch" for more information. Closing this bug. Tks, Jeff Bailey -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
