I think in your "workaround" you have effectively tried the steps that my
script accomplishes (echo 0, echo time_t), and I'm sorry to hear that did
not work for you. It is possible that I got it working through some
additional trick, which I have now forgotten. I'll see if a fresh
installation of Intrepid on my system works as I claimed above.

Karel,
I think in your "workaround" you have effectively tried the steps that my
script accomplishes (echo 0, echo time_t), and I'm sorry to hear that did
not work for you. It is possible that I got it working through some
additional trick, which I have now forgotten. I'll see if a fresh
installation of Intrepid on my system works as I claimed above.
