I was perusing the website to see if I could find information about the C functions for displaying date and times that are Y2K compliant. I'm using 2.2.5 and was looking at the source code for localtime and asctime. They're using a #define TM_YEAR_BASE 1900. This looks to be a bit of a problem for Y2K compliancy!
