Hi,

my copy of Ecma 119 at least states that byte 17 is the time zone
offset of the modification time which you use as “UUID”. It is set
to 0 by your variant of mkisofs, and I’m going to apply the same
to makefs(8) so that it can be used instead. Hence, we should ask
date(1) to give us Universal Time instead of local.

For the record (not relevant for this diff, I think), I do have
copyright assignment papers with the FSF standing (from earlier
work on things like libtool, gcc, …) and, if desired, extend it
to work on GRUB (either version) hereby.

bye,

FWIW, I'm quite impressed with mksh interactively. I thought it was much
*much* more bare bones. But it turns out it beats the living hell out of
ksh93 in that respect. I'd even consider it for my daily use if I hadn't
wasted half my life on my zsh setup. :-) -- Frank Terbeck in #!/bin/mksh
