** Some systems only handle "%.2d"; others only handle "%02d";

/*
** All years associated with 32-bit time_t values are exactly four digits long;
** some years associated with 64-bit time_t values are not.
** Vintage programs are coded for years that are always four digits long
** and may assume that the newline always lands in the same place.
** For years that are less than four digits, we pad the output with
** leading zeroes to get the newline in the traditional place.
** The -4 ensures that we get four characters of output even if
** we call a strftime variant that produces fewer characters for some years.
** The ISO C and POSIX standards prohibit padding the year,
** but many implementations pad anyway; most likely the standards are buggy.
