Can anyone explain the following? (the difference in commands is the
year spec.)
david@g4: perl -e 'use Time::Local;print ( (localtime(timelocal(0, 0,
0, 1, 1, 55)))[6], "\n");'
2
david@g4: perl -e 'use Time::Local;print ( (localtime(timelocal(0, 0,
0, 1, 1, 54)))[6], "\n");'
Cannot handle date (0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 2054) at -e line 1
david@g4:
All years I've tried > 55 are Ok; all years I've tried < 54 fail.
