If DBDATE is set to any value specifying a 2-digit year, when the 4gl
construct statement is called to input a series of fields, one of which
is a date type, the string returned will be truncated after the date
field; this means that selection criteria for fields preceding the date
field will work correctly, but criteria for fields following the date
field will be ignored.  Using a DBDATE specification with a 4 digit
year works correctly.
