    src/sbbs3 data.cpp 1.31 1.32
    Update of /cvsroot/sbbs/src/sbbs3
    In directory cvs:/tmp/cvs-serv16485

    Modified Files:
    data.cpp
    Log Message:
    Paranoia checks in getnextevent():
    If either localtime_r() or mktime() return a error result, don't use use the non-sensical time.
    Nelgin has reported that under some conditions, he sees:
    Your time has been reduced due to an upcoming event on Wed Dec 31 1969 18:00:00 when using Ctrl-T (time info hot key).
    I don't have an explanation for this, but if either of those function calls failed in getnextevent(), something like this could happen. <shrug>

    Log Message:
    More infinite/long event next-run-time brute force search paranoia

    Don't search more than 1500 days in the future for a next-run date match. This handles erroneous or just bizarre timed event configurations such as February-29 (once ever leap year) or April-31 (never).
