Martin Panter <vadmium...@gmail.com> added the comment: According to Wikipedia, there were 24 leap seconds before Feb 2009. So my guess is Eitan’s “gmtime” implementation is calculating the date as if the timestamp (1234567899) includes leap seconds, as in <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time#TAI-based_variant>. But according to Posix, the calculation should be for exactly 86400 timestamp seconds per day, and it should not adjust for leap seconds.
