This particular bug has interactions with other bugs that make me uncomfortable about attempting to fix it right now. The right way to fix this is especially influenced by the approach taken to bug#22033 and to the bug regarding pre-1972 UTC. The latter I haven't even reported yet because it's difficult to formulate in the presence of some of the other UTC-related bugs such as bug#21911 and bug#21912. So I think this is one to postpone until some of those are out of the way. -zefram
