Time-handling bug leads to lost time machine

(Inspired by the recent F22 Raptor computer crash crossing the 180-degree
longitude...)
I built a working time machine and sent it back to the year 1500. It was
supposed to take some pictures. I was planning on retrieving it from 2007
immediately afterwards. Unfortunately, I messed up the code for the Gregorian
calendar year adjustment and now I've lost it! Help!
Been reading comp.protocols.time.ntp recently? This would have been a truly
convincing AFD prank if he'd said his RTC got set back to 1500 by a rogue
server and nothing works now...
