I think this statement is naive. Although the kernel may represent all time values as time_t, you cannot guarantee that all applications do, and since there are rather a lot of them you can assume that there are some which use other mechanisms. Anything that stores a string, for example. So Unix is by no means automatically Y2K-proof. Do you disagree?
