Description Kees Cook 2000-03-22 03:53:15 UTC 
Using getty I just noticed that the @S string does not
resolve to "2000", but "100" instead.

Oops!

My /etc/issue contains:

-------
@T @S
-------

which just now produced:

-------
21:56:41 21 March 100

Uh, duh.  "@D" not "@S".  I typo'd that one.  The y2k-broken part
is @D.  @S is, of course, just fine.
