Yes I am using the date function. But for some reason only 26 march 2006
returns a negative value on my set up. ( apart from any date beyond 2038 ).
All dates in 2006 are fine. Could this be OS related ? The OS where i
expereince this problem is freebsd. The problem has manifested on two boxes
with freebsd.
