Re: bin/46782 (date -r overflows)



Synopsis: date -r overflows

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
State-Changed-By: jakllsch%NetBSD.org@localhost
State-Changed-When: Tue, 07 Aug 2012 22:45:24 +0000
State-Changed-Why:
This behavior is expected of all POSIX-like OSes with an int32_t time_t.
Furthermore, NetBSD switched to an int64_t time_t sometime after NetBSD-5, 
where this particular overflow is gone.  The int64_t time_t change is too 
invasive for backporting to NetBSD-5.  Your attention to detail is appreciated.
