Hmm, mine is a 2.2-current. However, you must be using a fairly old
2.1-stable system:

Brought in change from rev 1.3: fix off by ten error in year calculation.
(1) means that the fix is already present in 2.1R, as well as in
2.1.5R.
Please upgrade your system then.
Btw2, i think you must have been using
touch -t 199610200000 arq
since the fix was for a time specification with the century.
Can i close this?

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
