It's being reported (Slashdot, via CNN) that twelve of these

is in Ada, but I have no details as to what caused the error.

It surprises me that the software had problems dealing with this
problem in the first place. Why anyone uses "calender time" for
anything but display purposes is simply beyond my comprehension.
