One of the nice things about SCCS is the use of error codes with 
error messages.  For example, your message:

 	Clock may be set wrong! (Co11)
	                        ^^^^^^ typo here?

includes the error number co11.

The "help" utility gives you additional information using this code.  For
the co11 code, the help utility outputs:

	co11:
	"Clock may be set wrong!"
	The time of day may be set wrong.
	Check the current time with the "date" command.
	If it is wrong, contact your local UNIX support group immediately!
	(This message is produced whenever the difference between
	the current date and the creation date of the newest delta in
	the SCCS file is greater than one year.)
