Yes, I've seen this too. It happens because there is a file in
/pub/FreeBSD/distfiles with its mtime set to the Epoch, which in PST
(cdrom.com's timezone) is 31 Dec 1969. This is an invalid date in
timezones which are ahead of PST (most of the rest of the world), and
this results in the above problem.
There seems to be a few files in /pub/FreeBSD/distfiles with this problem
at the moment:
bash-2.0.tar.gz
imap-4.1.BETA.tar.Z
libsx.tar.gz
Since the timestamp on the offending file(s) didn't get fixed when
I mentioned it a while back, I modified mirror to avoid the problem:
*** /usr/local/lib/mirror/dateconv.pl.save Fri Nov 1 17:28:54 1996
--- /usr/local/lib/mirror/dateconv.pl Sun Nov 24 23:18:08 1996

$year -= 1900;

$x = &'timelocal( $secs, $mins, $hours, $day, $month, $year );
if( $use_timelocal ){
