>Description:
Simple enough: 3.4 ships with groff 1.11.  This lacks a y2k fix purportedly in more recent versions.  In short, the date turns up as 1900. :P
>How-To-Repeat:
Reference the builtin register \*(td, which should have today's date.
>Fix:
Upgrade.  I installed the current version, groff 1.15, and it works (well, it gets the date right, at any rate).

State-Changed-By: asmodai 
State-Changed-When: Wed Jan 12 05:42:27 PST 2000 
State-Changed-Why:  
It is put on suspended because I imported it in CURRENT and want the 
PR to stick around for some time before it gets MFC'd.
