Well, don't forget to fix Time dateAndTimeFromSeconds: secondCount as well
with the same temp fix (at least for values referring to later than 29 Feb).
Otherwise you won't be able to edit your swiki-pages anymore (since the
comswiki code compares page-save time and page-creation time based on these
two methods). The next windows VM is expected to incorporate a real fix (is
it?),

cheers,
Hans
