Some programs evaluate time by counting seconds since
1970. And some programs use a 30-bit number to count
these seconds (i.e. 32 bits less 2 bits for flags).
On 10 January next, a few weeks off, these programs
will experience serious Y2K problems. As an example
see here, http://news.com.com/2100-7355-5129875.html
How about your software, will any of it be affected?
Thanks,
