-I had exactly the same problem.  I fixed it by "lex"ing the file

-lex on our 6.2 system was buggy.  I haven't tried it under
-6.5.  Let me know if you'd like me to send you a working version
-of dtimep.c, the output of lex.

I had the same problem on our 835 running HPUX 3.0, and fixed it the same
way, by lexing it on another system.
