Something silly happened in the last posting, and the wrong version got sent
out somehow. There was another bug in qtime (pointed out locally and also
by Ian Feldman <ianf@se.kth.nada>) that wierd things start to happen as
you approach midnight.

Anyway, this is definitely the fixed version, if you're interested, I could
snail mail you the line printer test output whcih tested it for every second
of the day :-) :-)
