Greetings! There seems to have been an anomaly in the historical definitions of time zones leading to the following as shown by gcl and here also sbcl: 0: (DECODE-UNIVERSAL-TIME 1162399270 16) 0: DECODE-UNIVERSAL-TIME returned 10 41 0 1 11 1936 6 NIL 16 0: (DECODE-UNIVERSAL-TIME 1796226070 16) 0: DECODE-UNIVERSAL-TIME returned 10 41 23 1 12 1956 5 NIL 16 The two times provided are exactly 7336 days apart to the second, yet there is an hour discrepancy in the results. I seem to recall reading a long time ago that there were one off redefinitions of the time zones in the past. Can anyone enlighten me?
