I think I am seeing something similar. There was a Y2K bug in the date
handling on amiga, not sure if the bug was in AmigaOS, Linux-m68k (kernel),
hwclock, or all three of them. And it seems nobody really fixed it, although
somethings seems to have changed recently. If you have time to spare, you
are welcom to hunt it down.
