Presumably, this will continue to increase: 100, 101, 102 (for 2000, 2001,
2002). My book that contains the 'iso C' standard is packed away at the
moment, but I'm pretty positive that's what it says is supposed to happen.
(and this is what seems to happen currently:)
#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>
int main(void)
{
struct tm test;
test.tm_sec = 23;
test.tm_min = 53;
test.tm_hour = 15;
test.tm_mday = 10;
test.tm_mon = 2;
test.tm_year = 105;
test.tm_wday = 4;
test.tm_yday = 42;
test.tm_isdst = 0;
test.tm_zone = "CST";
test.tm_gmtoff = 21600;
printf("Date is: %s", asctime(&test));
return 0;
}

Real Programs don't use shared text. Otherwise, how can they use
functions for scratch space after they are finished calling them?
