It's actually completely screwed up; the year is 2036 though
you can't see it. It will only handle years 1970 through 2038
correctly. 0 and 1 catch it out and produce this screw-up,
most other dates seem to make it choose a different source
than the Date: header (after all there are plenty to choose from).

Cheers,
