I wonder what the other Chris (Nandor) does with MacGlue?

The Apple Event Manager represents dates as typeLongDateTime, which is a signed 64-bit integer representing the number of seconds since the classic Mac epoch (1 Jan 1904). Dates before the epoch are represented by negative values.

When unpacking AEDescs of typeLongDateTime on OS 9, Mac::Glue returns the number of seconds since the classic Mac epoch. On OS X, it automatically converts them to the number of seconds since the Unix epoch (1 Jan 1970).
