Year 10000 (Y10K) Problems
--------------------------

   Most intrinsics returning, or computing values based on, date
information are prone to Year-10000 (Y10K) problems, due to supporting

   See the following for examples: Note: FDate Intrinsic (function),
Note: FDate Intrinsic (subroutine), Note: IDate Intrinsic (UNIX),
Note: Time Intrinsic (VXT), Note: Date_and_Time Intrinsic.
