You are correct.  I was confused.  Since I did not feel like messing
with the time on my system, I had other compiles running which would
have broken, I tested on a "victim" system.  I am so used to having
the latest version that I forgot even to check.  On the victim machine
I was running date from sh-utils 2.0.  Sorry about that!  The newer
version works correctly.
