tai64nlocal _does_ read from STDIN. From my machine here:

gregw@frodo:~$ tai64nlocal
@400000003b225d8422c3027c
2001-06-09 10:31:38.583205500

The tai timestamp was obtained from a multilog file. The local date was
output by tai64nlocal. Try this timestamp as input (cut 'n' paste):

@400000003b225d8422c3027c

Your timestamp above gave me:

gregw@frodo:~$ tai64nlocal
@4000000037c219bf2ef02e94
1999-08-23 21:04:05.787492500

Did you terminate that timestamp by pressing enter? Or did you just
leave it there...?
