Ok, sit down and take a deep breath.  Make sure you sharp objects are within
reach.

Excel's numbering which Gnumeric follows incorrectly assumes that
the year 1900 was a leap year.

Evidently, OOo did not follow that crap, but that means that if you import
xls files with dates before 1-Mar-1900, then you will see different dates
(although they might try to patch things up -- an inherently impossible
task to get 100% correct).
