I am still on 0.79, so I would not see this bug.  However, I noticed
that you are probably located in California (which is eight hours behind
Greenwich) and that your header has the following line:

> Date: 17 Jan 1997 02:40:14 +0000

I suspect that something is changing your time zone to +0000 from its
appropriate setting of -0800.
