+      <dd>Several cvs contrib files are not Y2K compliant.
+      The log.pl and sccs2rcs.csh scripts prepend `19' to the year
+      resulting in a display of 19100 for 2000. The log_accum.pl
+      script uses a two digit year in one place and in another
+      place assumes that the tm_year is year within century rather
+      than years since 1900.

+      <dd>The groff number register `yr' is assigned from a (struct tm).tm_year
+      and therefore represents the number of years since 1900, not the
