This reminds me of a bug that I thought I reported before, but now I
cannot find. COBOL had Y2K, Unix has its year 2038, and Nmap has its
year 2018 problem--its "21th" birthday.


Good catch and thanks for the patch!  It looks like Dan already applied
it.  Happy 21st, Nmap!  Dan also recently fixed a Y3K bug affecting dates
after January 3001 (https://github.com/nmap/nmap/issues/1303).  All fixed,
with just 982 years to spare!

Cheers,
Fyodor
