System V Release 3.2 MRD says the same thing as SVR4: An unusual calendar is printed for September 1752. That is the month 11 days were skipped to make up for lack of leap year adjustments. To see this calendar, type: "cal 9 1752" The "BUGS" section remains the same as it was in 7th Edition. In the CSRG SCCS files cal(1) was "updated" after the 4.3BSD release with this comment: src/usr.bin/cal/SCCS/s.cal.1 D 6.3 89/09/28 14:20:22 bostic 5 4 00042/00023/00009 MRs: COMMENTS: new version from Kim Letkeman (mitel!spock!kim@uunet.UU.NET) The code was also updated at the same time: src/usr.bin/cal/SCCS/s.cal.c D 4.5 89/09/28 14:20:24 bostic 5 4 00222/00159/00043 MRs: COMMENTS: new version from Kim Letkeman (mitel!spock!kim@uunet.UU.NET) This is of course a complete rewrite to give UCB the copyright. -- Greg A.
