ChangeSet 1.2231.1.78, 2005/03/28 19:38:15-08:00, [EMAIL PROTECTED]

        [PATCH] x86_64: Change the y2069 bug in the RTC timer code to be a 
y2100 bug.
        
        That's ok since x86-64 systems only exist since 2001.  More is 
unfortunately
        not possible because the RTC CMOS only supports two decimal digits.
