[comp.sys.mac.programmer] LSC 3.0 gripe

I just got off the phone with THINK about the unix time routines in 
Lightspeed C.  They don't work at all correctly.  They know about the
problem but it isn't a high priority for them to fix it.  

Somebody re-wrote the routines for 2.15 release, but they were never
completely tested, so they aren't available.  This really ticks me off,
since I can't use these routines at all.  They suggested that I write my
own routine to do what these broken routines should do.

I'm very angry and disappointed with them right now.  

Has anybody re-written these routines (specifically ctime) yet?
