Problem with zoo: restoring times

[Johan Vromans]

The following strange thing happens when I use the recently
posted zoo program ("~ > " is the shell prompt):

~ > date
Mon Feb 13 19:49:19 MET 1989
~ > touch xxx.tmp
~ > zoo aP xxx.zoo xxx.tmp
Zoo:  xxx.tmp --  ( 0%) added
~ > zoo l xxx.zoo

Archive xxx.zoo:
Length    CF  Size Now  Date      Time
--------  --- --------  --------- --------
       0   0%        0  13 Feb 89 19:49:24+64   xxx.tmp
--------  --- --------  --------- --------
       0   0%        0     1 file
~ > rm xxx.tmp
~ > zoo x xxx.zoo xxx.tmp
Zoo:  xxx.tmp        -- extracted
~ > ls -l xxx.tmp
-rw-rw-rw-   1 jv       bsp            0 Feb 16  1989 xxx.tmp

As you can see, after extraction, the date of the file is a few
days ahead! (No, it doesn't make difference if the file is not empty).

Anyone else encountered this?
