Hello -

I recently found a bug where recurrent events on a google calendar do
not get correctly translated for iCal.

I have a "birthdays" calendar that tracks recurrent yearly birthday
events. If I know how old someone is, I use their birth year as the
start date.

If I do not know, I use a "clearly wrong" marker of 1800-01-01. Google
handles this just fine.

However, I have found (by looking at the ICS files produced by
spanning sync) that these events ALL get translated to all-day events
on the precise date of 1970-01-01 - the Unix epoch.

Changing my google calendar event to start at 1970 or later fixes the
problem.

However - I have a LOT of birthday records and can't edit them
manually via google calendar.

Is it possible to fix spanning sync's date calculations, or at least
have it spit out a warning that dates could be off? It seems to me
that detecting epoch underflow should be flagged somehow.

Cheers,
-Andrew.
