Here is an old C program that demonstrates the problem.
http://shell.deru.com/~gdt/c/code/Y2.038K.c
Although not a Unix system problem, I was using the 'cal' command
to test for leap years, but it doesn't handle 5-digit years.

Since it is FLOSS, I looked at cal.c to see what would be involved
in changing it to work beyond year 9999, but the modification is
non-trivial for me to design, implement, and test.
