I'm seeing this in the stub:
$Id: stub.asm built 09/26/100 18:44:19 by djasm $
^M
@(#) stub.asm built 09/26/100 18:44:19 by djasm
^M

Ooops!

This is the guilty code in djasm.y:
void add_rcs_ident(char *buf)
{
  char tmp[500];
  time_t now;
  struct tm *tm;
  time(&now);
  tm = localtime(&now);
  sprintf(tmp, "%cId: %s built %02d/%02d/%02d %02d:%02d:%02d by djasm $\n",
          '$', inname,
          tm->tm_mon + 1,
          tm->tm_mday,
          tm->tm_year,
          tm->tm_hour,
          tm->tm_min,
          tm->tm_sec);
  add_copyright(tmp);
  sprintf(tmp, "@(#) %s built %02d/%02d/%02d %02d:%02d:%02d by djasm\n",
          inname,
          tm->tm_mon + 1,
          tm->tm_mday,
          tm->tm_year,
          tm->tm_hour,
          tm->tm_min,
          tm->tm_sec);
  add_copyright(tmp);
}

Shall we go to four digits or subract 100?

While we are talking about this piece: could we change the MM/DD/YY
format to YY/MM/DD or YY-MM-DD which every sane person should use
(hello Americans...)?


Right,
