SubjectNon-urgent issue with fs/isofs/util.c
Hi,

The iso_date function in fs/isofs/util.c doesn't correctly handle leap years.

Well, it doesn't handle the year 2100 - which according to the code is a leap
year, but according to the commonly accepted rules is not.

I don't think we need to be to concerned right now, but changing:
         if (((year+2) % 4) == 0 && month > 2)
to:
             if (((year+2) % 4) == 0 && month > 2 && year != 130)
should fix it.
Ian

Cause a heart speaks louder than a colour can
And why would you even shake a man's hand
If you're not going to help him stand
