It looks like someone has to port getdate.y to QNX 6, then.  Do you
have the time to do that?  QNX 6 is certainly entitled by POSIX to
have an unsigned long time_t, but that (ahem) unusual implementation
will break the code in 'getdate'.

One hacky workaround is to remove the offending "verify" line.  The
resulting code will fail miserably with some time stamps, but perhaps
you won't run into any of those time stamps.
