Well, the objects I'm dealing with CAN have time-of-day information, but mostly they do not, and this is not known until run-time. So, for the sake of a common interface, I want to use time, but simply ignore the time-of-day part when it is not needed. > Interesting, you are correct it does not work.

Yes the special date values don't appear to be regarded as "special" when used with the counted representation. They just get combined into the single counted value, and their special-ness is lost.
