This is a completely different version. Once Debian updates (in a few years) they'll get the same result. If you are misusing interfaces you get what you deserve. At no time was it correct to use these functions for general date manipulation. It always only was allowed to use them to represent system times and there was no Unix system before the epoch. Therefore you argumentation is completely wrong. If you need date manipulation write your own code which work for all the times you want to represent. -- ---------------. ,-. 1325 Chesapeake Terrace Ulrich Drepper \ ,-------------------' \ Sunnyvale, CA 94089 USA Red Hat `--' drepper at redhat.com `------------------------
