Subj : MPL DateStr and User Data

I'm having a issue with a userlist MPL that is supposed to read the user list and display the information. I am using datestr to format the UserFirstOn and UserLastOn date/time variables. But the output is completely wrong. 

For instance, a user had first logged in on 06/23/24 (in MM/DD/YY format) but my mpl that displays datestr(userfirston,1) will display it as 03/24/31. This only seems to happen when reading the user list with getuser(num) and using userfirston. When I iterate through the user list, the userfirston dates seem to had consistent values for that login. i.e., the next user first login was 3 days later (06/26/24) and the date value displayed as 03/30/31.

This is the only area I've found that will give the weird date output. When I use datestr(datetime) it displays the proper date.

Does this happen with anybody else? This is on the linux x86_64 version of A49.
