<dd>The `edithook' script in the CVSROOT directory uses a raw tm_year and
will therefore display 01/01/100 for 2000-JAN-01.

<dd>Several cvs contrib files are not Y2K compliant.
The log.pl and sccs2rcs.csh scripts prepend `19' to the year
resulting in a display of 19100 for 2000. The log_accum.pl
script uses a two digit year in one place and in another
place assumes that the tm_year is year within century rather
than years since 1900.

<dd>The groff number register `yr' is assigned from a (struct tm).tm_year
and therefore represents the number of years since 1900, not the
year within the century (see definition in troff/input.cc).

<dd>tcpslice(8) uses a raw tm_year and will therefore display
100y01m01d... for 2000-JAN-01. For compatibility, use a two-digit
year until 2000.
