What is a type -8850 error? Anyone know?
It's a UTC underflow error -- you get it when trying to convert a time too
close to midnight Jan 1, 1904 GMT to local time. You wouldn't be using "info
for" to look at a file on a Unix file system, would you? There's a known bug
about that, but I didn't think anyone would hit it in the real world.
