If file dates are of interest to you, you might want to take a look at what
stat () is returning, versus what DCL DIR says. Apparantly there's a bug in
the "C" RTL that causes file dates to be an hour off during daylight saving
time. It's still there in 7.1-1H2. I've got a patch I'm going to try, but
of course I can't swear that it's good until we go back to standard time in
October.
