Comment 4 for bug 771589

Wow - this is a Y2K bug; welcome to the 21st century!
looking at src/console.c we have in aff_date:
        char cdate[19];

        sdate = localtime (&temps);
#ifdef ENGLISH
        sprintf (cdate, " %02d-%02d-%02d %02d:%02d",
                         sdate->tm_year, sdate->tm_mon + 1, sdate->tm_mday,
                         sdate->tm_hour, sdate->tm_min);
#else
        sprintf (cdate, " %02d/%02d/%02d %02d:%02d",
                         sdate->tm_mday, sdate->tm_mon + 1, sdate->tm_year,
                         sdate->tm_hour, sdate->tm_min);
#endif

the problem is that sdate->tm_year is 112 which makes the sprintf print a string like

 " 112-08-19 16:58"
which is 19 characters, add the \0 terminator and it's 20 characters - so it is a buffer overrun.
