 >Description:
 When I invoked 'man host.equiv' at January 20 2000,
 I found following in the man page:
 ----
 FreeBSD                        January 20, 1900                              1
 ----
 >How-To-Repeat:
 # rm /usr/share/man/cat5/hosts.equiv
 % man hosts.equiv
 
 The following may be printed on the last of man page:
 ----
 FreeBSD                        January 20, 1900                              1

 >Fix:
 /usr/src/contrib/groff/troff/input.cc, line 5546
 
 -  set_number_reg("yr", int(tt->tm_year)%100);
 +  set_number_reg("yr", int(tt->tm_year));
