[comp.sys.apollo] NQS build woes under 9.7

JTBAUER%FSU.MFENET@NMFECC.ARPA (10/17/88)

Trying to run the Network Queuing System under Aegis 9.7
and Domain I/X.  The source builds OK.  When I run one of the
utilities that builds some transaction directories [xnqsmktrans] it
bombs with errno=34 (math lib result too large) on a utimes() 
call.

Apparently NQS uses the "updated" time field in the inode as
a keeper of special NQS flags.  It sets the time field to values
that would correspond to invalid time values.  It seems that
while SunOS 3.5 (NQS compiles and runs just fine there) allows
funky values by utimes(), Aegis 9.7 & Domain I/X bomb out.  Anybody
know a reasonable workaround for this problem?

Thanks,
