All right, then I wonder why your checktm() doesn't check the tm_year?

It is not mine. I thought it did. I might have missed that when I reviewed the patch or there was a reason for that at the time. Note that there is a comment that says:

""" tm_year: [0, max(int)] (1) .. (1) gettmarg() handles bounds-checking. """

If you are ok with introducing stricter bounds checking in beta, I'll try to get to the bottom of it shortly.
