address@hidden  The SRFI-1 spec says -4714-11-24T12:00:00Z (November 24, -4714 at
address@hidden  noon, UTC), but this is incorrect.  It looks like it might have
address@hidden  arisen from the code incorrectly treating years a multiple of 100
address@hidden  but not 400 prior to 1582 as non-leap years, where instead the Julian
address@hidden  calendar should be used so all multiples of 4 before 1582 are leap
address@hidden  years.
